LIPASE‐CATALYZED ACIDOLYSIS OF CORN OIL WITH CONJUGATED LINOLEIC ACID IN HEXANE

ABSTRACT Lipase‐mediated acidolysis of corn oil with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was studied in hexane. The largest extent of incorporation was obtained using a weight ratio of CLA to corn oil of 1:7 (1:2.22 mole ratio). Commercial immobilized lipases from Rhizomucor miehei and Candida antarctica...

Description
Summary:ABSTRACT Lipase‐mediated acidolysis of corn oil with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was studied in hexane. The largest extent of incorporation was obtained using a weight ratio of CLA to corn oil of 1:7 (1:2.22 mole ratio). Commercial immobilized lipases from Rhizomucor miehei and Candida antarctica effectively catalyzed interesterification. Of the total acylglycerols in the products, triacylglycerols constituted >90%. For both immobilized enzymes, CLA residues were esterified mainly at the sn‐1,3 positions.
