PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF DIACYLGLYCEROL

摘要

THE PRESENT INVENTION PROVIDES A PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A DIACYLGLYCEROL, WHICH COMPRISES, REACTING TRIACYLGLYCEROL WITH WATER AND AN ENZYME TO OBTAIN A MIXTURE COMPRISING OF DIACYLGLYCEROL, MONOACYLGLYCEROL AND FREE FATTY ACID; REMOVING WATER CONTENT IN THE MIXTURE BY WAY OF DEHYDRATION; AND SEPARATING MONOACYLGLYCEROL, FREE FATTY ACID AND RESIDUAL TRIACYLGLYCEROL BY AT LEAST ONE SEPARATION METHOD TO OBTAIN A HIGH-PURITY DIACYLGLYCEROL. AN OIL OR FAT COMPOSITION COMPRISING OF DIACYLGLYCEROL OBTAINED FROM THE SAID PROCESS AND PHYTOSTERYL ESTERS AND/OR FERULIC ACID ESTERS IN AN AMOUNT OF FROM 0.5% TO 25% BY WEIGHT OF DIACYLGLYCEROL IS ALSO PROVIDED.
