Abstract

Lipozyme TL IM-catalyzed esterification was carried out to produce functional hard fat (structured lipid, SL) using palm stearin (PS) and hydrolysate of pomegranate seed oil (HPSO) of 1:6 molar ratio. HPSO contained conjugated linolenic acid (CLnA, about 80%). The reaction was performed at non-solvent system and solvent (n-hexane) system using Lipozyme TL IM (10% of total substrates, w/w) for 12, 24, and 72 hr in a shaking water bath ($55^{\circ}C$ and 185 rpm), respectively. SL synthesized in non-solvent system (NH-SL) and SL synthesized in n-hexane system (H-SL) were refined after deacidification, respectively. Their physicochemical properties were compared to obtain desirable functional hard fat. The content of CLnA in NH-SL increased from 34.38% to 40.63% with increasing reaction time. Similar results also observed in H-SL resulting in 36.81~45.83% of CLnA. In triacylglycerol (TAG) composition, the main molecules of LnLnLn (Ln=linolenic acid, PN=36) and the LnLnP (P=palmitic acid, PN=40) were newly synthesized in NH-SL and H-SL with increasing reaction time. After 72 hr reaction, iodine values of NH-SL (136.49) and H-SL (140.37) showed high values because of the high content of CLnA. Solid fat index (SFI) in NH-SL was higher than that in H-SL at each measured temperature. The predominant polymorphic forms of NH-SL and H-SL obtained after esterification for 72 hr were the desirable crystalline structure of the ${\beta}$' form.

기능성 지방산인 CLnA를 다량 함유하고 있는 석류 종자유로부터 합성된 가수분해물과 고체지인 팜 스테아린을 기질로 사용하여 Lipozyme TL IM 효소를 촉매로 하여, 기능성 고체지들을 무용매 반응(NH-SL)과 n-hexane 반응(H-SL)조건에서 합성하였다. 합성은 기질 비율 1:6 몰(w/w, PS:HPSO)로, 각 12, 24, 72 hr 동안 반응하여 이루어졌다. 합성 후 반응물은 탈산과정을 수행한 후 각 기능성 고체지들의 이화학적 특성을 살펴보았다. 총 지방산 조성분석결과, 반응시간이 증가함에 따라 NH-SL에서 CLnA의 함량은 34.38%, 37.68%, 40.63%의 함량으로 유의적 차이를 보이며 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다(p<0.05). H-SL에서 CLnA의 함량은 36.81%, 41.19%, 45.83%으로 유의적 차이를 보이며 증가하였다(p<0.05). TAG 조성분석 결과, 기능성 재구성지질들(NH-SL, H-SL)에는 LnLnLn(PN=36), LnLnL(PN=38), LnLL과 LnLnP(PN=40), LLL(PN=42), PLP(PN=46), OOLn과 PLO, POP, PPS(PN=48), LOO, POS(PN=50) 등으로 구성되어 있었다. 반응시간이 길어짐에 따라 NH-SL의 경우 LnLnLn의 함량이 1.63%에서 11.54%로 증가하였고, H-SL의 경우 5.89%에서 18.45%로 증가하였다. 또한 주된 TAG 조성인 LnLnP의 경우 각각 23.15~33.77%(NH-SL)와 28.76~36.44%(H-SL)으로 높은 함량을 나타내었다. 합성한 석류종자유 가수분해물의 산가는 200.46이었으며, 합성 후 탈산한 기능성 고체지들의 산가는 1.05~1.41로 낮았다. 또한 불포화도를 나타내는 요오드가 측정결과, 무용매 반응과 용매 반응 모두에서 반응시간이 길어짐에 따라 요오드가가 점차로 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 반응시간이 길어짐에 따라 CLnA의 함량이 높아졌기 때문에 IV가 점차로 높아지는 결과를 얻은 것으로 사료된다. 기능성 고체지들의 total tocopherol 함량 측정결과, 반응시간이 길어짐에 따라 NH-SL의 경우 3.37~2.13 mg/100 g으로 다소 감소하였으며, H-SL의 경우 3.89~2.51 mg/100 g으로 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한, 기능성 고체지들의 SFI 측정결과, H-SL의 경우 $10^{\circ}C$에서 NH-SL보다 고체지 함량이 낮았으며, $25^{\circ}C$에서는 거의 액체 상태를 유지하였다. 이는 융점이 낮으며 불포화지방산인 CLnA의 함량이 비교적 높았기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 마가린과 같은 적절한 spreadability를 부여하기 위해서는 무용매 반응(NH-SL)에서 12 hr과 24 hr 반응을 통하여 생성된 기능성 고체지들이 적합할 것으로 예측되었다. 72 hr 동안 반응하여 생성된 기능성 고체지들(NH-SL, H-SL)의 경우, $3.86{\AA}$에서 낮은 강도를 나타내어, 주로 ${\beta}$'의 결정형을 이루고 있음을 확인하였다.
