- Abstract
- This study aimed to optimize the lipase-catalyzed transesterification of high oleic sunflower oil (A) with a mixture of ethyl palmitate and ethyl stearate (B) to produce cocoa butter equivalents with a weight ratio of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-stearoyl-rac-glycerol (POS) to total symmetric monounsaturated triacylglycerols (SMUT) that is similar to that of cocoa butter by response surface methodology. The reaction was performed in a continuous packed bed reactor, using 0.45 g of Lipozyme RM IM as the biocatalyst. The effects of temperature (Te), residence time (RT), substrate molar ratio (SR, B/A), and water content (WC) of the substrates on the composition of reaction products were elucidated using the models established. Optimal reaction conditions for maximizing total SMUT and POS contents while minimizing the levels of diacylglycerol formation and acyl migration were: Te, 60 A degrees C; RT, 28.5 min; SR, 8.5; WC, 300 mg/kg. The contents of total SMUT, POS, and diacylglycerol in the reaction products and the content of palmitoyl and stearoyl residues at the sn-2 position of triacylglycerols in the products were 52.0, 25.1, 9.4, and 4.8 %, respectively, under these conditions. Successful scale-up of the reaction was achieved under the optimal conditions, using 5 g of the lipase. A silver-ion high performance liquid chromatography analysis showed that the products obtained by the larger scale reaction contained 49.1 % total SMUT and 6.1 % of their positional isomers.
