METHOD FOR PRODUCING MONOUNSATURATED GLYCERIDES

摘要

A process for producing a glyceride product which is enriched in monounsaturated fatty acids relative to the starting glyceride comprising the steps: (a) alcoholysis of triglycerides employing lipolytic enzymes selective for saturated fatty acids and/or lipolytic enzymes selective for the 1 - position, the 3-position or both positions in a glyceride; and (b) separation of fraction A which is enriched in saturated fatty acid esters from fraction B which is enriched in monounsaturated glycerides.
