Patent ID: 7902388

Claim:
A deodorized oil composition comprising at least about 0.4 wt. % of at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid having four or more carbon-carbon double bonds or a derivative thereof based upon the total weight of fatty acids or derivatives thereof in the composition, and either: (a) the composition having less than 1 wt. % trans-fatty acid based upon the total weight of fatty acids or derivatives thereof in the composition; (b) the composition being derived from a source other than a marine oil and having a peroxide value of less than about 1 meq/kg; (c) the composition being derived from a source other than a marine oil and having an anisidine value of less than about 3; (d) the polyunsaturated fatty acid being stearidonic acid or a derivative thereof, and the composition further comprising at least one additional polyunsaturated fatty acid having four or more carbon-carbon double bonds or a derivative thereof, the composition having an anisidine value of less than about 3; (e) the composition being derived from a genetically-modified seed selected from the group consisting of Arabidopsis , carrot, coconut, corn, cotton, flax, linseed, maize, palm kernel, peanut, potato, safflower, soybean, sunflower, tobacco, and mixtures thereof; (f) the composition has an aroma total impact score of up to about 2.5, wherein total impact is determined by a standardized sensory evaluation; or (g) the composition has an aromatics/flavor total impact score of up to about 2.5, wherein total impact is determined by a standardized sensory evaluation.
