    Abstract

    This study is designed to compare the chemical composition and antioxidant effect of the laboratory cinnamon essential oil [1] and two commercial essential oils [2]. It was distilled with water and extracted by Cloninger machine. And commercial essential oils were purchased from the local market.

    In order to identify the chemical compounds of the essential oils, a mechanical analysis (GC/MS) was done. The main compounds identified in the laboratory cinnamon essential oil are cinnamaldehyde (77%), cinnamaldehyde dimethylacetate (6.6%), alpha-caffeine (6%) and delta-codenine (3%). The results of the instrumental analysis showed that the main compounds of the laboratory essential oil were different from those of the commercial essential oil, and the main compounds identified in the two commercial essential oils were cinnamaldehyde, transcaryophyllene, linalool, and eugenol, respectively.

    The antioxidant effect of the essential oils was evaluated with three different methods of iron chelation [3], reducing power [4] and anti-radical effect of DPPH. In this regard, the laboratory essential oil was stronger than the two commercial essential oils in the chelation test, but it was statistically weaker than the two commercial essential oils in the two DPPH reductive and anti-radical tests. monoterpene in laboratory essential oil.

    Chapter 1 Introduction:

    1-1-1 Introduction:

    Oxidation of food, especially oils, causes a decrease in the nutritional value of food and the formation of hydroperoxides, odorous carbonyl compounds, malondialdehydes, alkanes, and alkenes. Also, oxidation can affect the chemical and organoleptic quality of food and cause cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases in consumers, so the problem of oxidation instability and its prevention through adding Antioxidants are important for the stability of food and maintaining health. (Nilfer et al. [5] 2004)

    A look at the research works carried out in the field of food industry in the world shows that the bulk of this research in the last few years has focused on the issue of foods and health-promoting compounds as well as natural preservatives. The main purpose of using antioxidants as a food additive is to preserve the quality of food and increase its shelf life. The use of antioxidants reduces the waste of raw materials and nutrients and develops the types of fats that can be used in special products. Azadmard (2010)

    However, the reason why synthetic antioxidants work effectively during thermal processes and storage conditions is because of their use The possibility of toxicity is controversial from the point of view of food safety. In such a way that the strongest synthetic antioxidant (TBHQ) [6] is not allowed in Japan, Canada and Europe, and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) [7] has also been removed from the list of compounds that are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) [8]. Therefore, research on natural antioxidants as an alternative to synthetic antioxidants is of particular importance. Iqbal and Banger [9] (2007)

    1-2- Objective:

    Cinnamon is widely used as a flavoring agent in food, and in addition, nowadays it is used as a disinfectant for surface wounds, to treat diarrhea and digestive system problems, and to treat colds in medical science. It is also used to treat kidney and stomach discomfort as well as type 2 diabetes. At the same time, it has the same effect as penicillin and is available as an antipyretic in the form of tablets and capsules in pharmacies in the United States and Canada.At the same time, it has the same effect as penicillin and is available as a fever medicine in the form of tablets and capsules in pharmacies in the United States and Canada. In addition to the mentioned cases, cinnamon also has high antioxidant activity and the oil in it has antibacterial and antioxidant properties, and these properties of cinnamon are used as a preservative in food to increase the shelf life of food. .

    Aware of the above-mentioned content, there has been a general tendency towards this plant in Iran for a long time, and today several commercial companies inside the country have started extracting cinnamon essential oil and distributing it nationwide. These essential oils are sold in glass containers and as 100% pure, and sometimes there are complaints from experts regarding the effectiveness of these essential oils compared to essential oils obtained in laboratories. Therefore, considering the importance of this issue, this study is conducted to evaluate the compounds and antioxidant activity of commercial cinnamon essential oil in comparison with the pure essential oil extracted in the laboratory.

    The purpose of this research is to evaluate the commercial cinnamon essential oil in terms of chemical compounds and antioxidant activity, and in the next step is to compare it with the pure essential oil prepared in the laboratory.

    2-1- Food oxidation:

    Most foods contain fat. Fats have a high nutritional value and are considered a source of energy, but the life of fats is limited and with the passage of time, their properties change and their nutritional value decreases.

    Oils and fats, like many unsaturated substances, are oxidized by air oxygen, and the result of continuous oxidation of the oil is the appearance of pungency[10] with an unpleasant smell and taste, and as a result, the oil becomes unusable. Although corruption in fats may occur for reasons other than oxidation, such as the effect of enzymes or microscopic organisms, from a practical point of view, oxidation is the most important cause of oil corruption, and light, heat, and some impurities such as the presence of water, metals, and pigments accelerate this process. Oils and fats gradually absorb oxygen, and this oxygen absorption continues until the preliminary period, without any change in the smell and taste of the oil. After this period, oxygen absorption is done at a faster rate and then the absorption ratio decreases. Polyunsaturated compounds of oils oxidize faster than monounsaturated and saturated compounds. During the time required for oils to become hot, it is possible that only polyunsaturated compounds will oxidize by themselves, and therefore these compounds are the main focus of spontaneous oxidation of oils (Fatemi, 1378; Qanbarzadeh, 1388). For a long time, it was thought that the product of oxidation is a cyclic peroxide. Farmer and colleagues in the 1940s showed that the substance produced by oxidation is actually a hydroperoxide[1]). According to the proposal of this group, the mechanism of the oxidation process is basically based on the formation of free radicals (Fatemi, 2018).

    The actual mechanism of oxidation is complex and has not been fully clarified, but its main characteristics are known and known. Oxidation of fats produces free radicals, which are considered as catalysts of this process, the primary substrate for these reactions is unsaturated fatty acids. It is multiple and oxygen.
