A METHOD FOR THE PREPARATION OF A PHOSPHOLIPID WITH A CARBOXYLIC ACID RESIDUE IN THE 2-POSITION AND A PHOSPHOLIPID WITH AN omega -3-FATTY ACID RESIDUE IN THE 2-POSITION

摘要

The present invention relates to phospholipids with a desired carboxylic acid residue, such as an omega -3-fatty acid residue, in the 2-position. These compounds are produced by esterifying a conventional lysophospholipid with the corresponding carboxylic acid in the presence of the catalyst phospholipase A2, the esterification taking place in a microemulsion with a water content not exceeding 0.1-2 % by weight.
