In this study, water degumming (WDG), citric acid degumming (ADG), and ethanol degumming (EDG) were systematically evaluated for their effects on oil quality, phospholipid recovery, and bioactive lipid concentrations. A modified Folch extraction was included solely as a laboratory solvent-extraction benchmark for the compositional characterization of phospholipid-rich fractions. WDG and ADG showed the highest phosphorus removal efficiency, reducing phosphorus to undetectable levels, whereas EDG also achieved substantial dephosphorization. ADG produced the highest PL yield (83.22%), while WDG gave the highest oil recovery (98.42%) and PL purity (95.49%). Although the bulk FA composition of the oil remained largely unchanged after treatment, the recovered PL fractions showed clear differences in FA distribution and PL subclass composition. EDG yielded the highest phosphatidylcholine (PC) and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) contents, indicating selective enrichment of choline-containing PLs. The concentrations of carotenoids, tocopherols, and phytosterols were also process-dependent. Untargeted metabolomic and lipidomic analyses further showed that EDG induced distinct compositional remodeling relative to crude rapeseed oil. Overall, WDG was preferable for oil retention, ADG for maximum PL recovery, and EDG provided a distinct balance between oil recovery, PL recovery, and enrichment of PC- and LPC-containing fractions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules31173099","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,4]],"date-time":"2026-09-04T12:20:19Z","timestamp":1788524419000},"page":"3099","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Comparative Degumming of Rapeseed Oil: Phospholipid Recovery, Bioactive Lipid Concentrations, and Molecular Remodeling"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Hongli","family":"Huang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Food Science and Engineering, Northwest A&F University, Yangling 712100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"software","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"validation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"formal-analysis","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"data-curation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-original-draft","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"visualization","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Fangcheng","family":"Shao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Food Science and Engineering, Northwest A&F University, Yangling 712100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"software","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"validation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"formal-analysis","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"data-curation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-original-draft","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"visualization","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Xinlei","family":"Feng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shandong Animal Products Quality and Safety Center, Jinan 250100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"formal-analysis","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6186-6882","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jun","family":"Jin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Food Science and Resources, School of Food Science and Technology, Jiangnan University, Wuxi 214122, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"resources","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4473-5792","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Siyu","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Food Science and Engineering, Northwest A&F University, Yangling 712100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"resources","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"supervision","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"project-administration","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"funding-acquisition","vocabulary":"credit"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Shen, J., Liu, Y., Wang, X., Bai, J., Lin, L., Luo, F., and Zhong, H.
