Enzymatic acidolysis of rapeseed oil with capric acid was carried out to obtain structured lipids. The reaction was catalyzed by Lipozyme IM lipase from Rhizomucor miehei. The enzyme preparations contained 2.8 and 10% water. The reaction conditions were enzyme load of 8% (w/w total substrates), substrate mole ratio of 1:6 (rapeseed oil:capric acid), and reaction temperature of 65C. The results showed that triacylglycerols (TAG) after transesterification contained mainly oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids (about 90%) in the internal sn-2 position, whereas capric acid was mostly in the external sn-1,3 positions (approximately 40%). The quantity of water in the reaction medium had a significant influence on the yield and quality of the TAG fraction. |
