Abstract: | The activities of four immobilized lipases for glycerolysis of a commercially available fish oil (TG500) rich in eicosapentaenoic residues (>58%, w/w) have been characterized in solvent-free systems. The effects of the mole ratio of TG500 to glycerol and temperature have been investigated. The highest conversion was obtained at 60°C with a Candida antarctica fraction B lipase (Chirazyme L-2) and a mole ratio of TG500 (based on fatty acid equivalents) to glycerol of 1.5 to 1. |
