Based on reaction time and substrate molar ratio, structured lipid (SL-corn) was produced at 1:2:2(corn oil/capric acid/CLA) and 4% immobilized lipase from Rhizomucor miehei (RM IM). Reaction was carried out for 24 hr at $55^{\circ}C$ in 1-L stirred-batch reactor. After reaction, 13.3 mol% capric acid and 8.9%, CLA were incorporated into corn oil. Iodine and saponification values of SL-corn were 68 and 202, respectively. Tocopherol content decreased after reaction (about 39%). SL-corn showed more yellowish color than corn oil (p<0.05). Reversed-phase HPLC indicated triacylglycerol species containing capric acid in SL-corn resulted in faster crystallization than that of corn oil.

In the absence of organic solvent, di- and mono-acylglycerol enriched functional oil was produced by lipase-catalyzed glycerolysis in a stirred tank batch reactor. After glycerolysis for 48 hr, functional oil consisted of $47.1\%\;TAG,\;33.6\%\;DAG,\;and\;18.7\%$ MAG. In MAG and DAG, docosahexaenoic acid was found as $10.7\%\;and\;8.1\%$, respectively. During the reaction, total tocopherol content decreased, and $0.065\%$ tocopherols were existed in the functional oil produced after 48hr reaction.

Synthesis conditions were optimized using response surface methodology for producing structured lipids (SL) by interesterification of DHA-enriched algae oil derived from microalgae, Schizochytrium sp. and corn oil. Reaction was performed fer 24 hr at $55^{\circ}C$ catalyzed by immobilized lipase from Rhizomucor miehei (RM IM) in shaking water bath. Major fatty acids of SL were palmitic (21.70 mol%), oleic (20.20 mol%), and linoleic (27.34 mol%) acids, and DHA (15.06 mol%). To separate newly synthesized SL-triglycerides (TG) species, HPLC with evaporative light scatting detector (ELSD) was used. Production conditions were optimized using central composite design with reaction temperature $(35-75^{\circ}C,\;X_1)$, reaction time $(2-42\;hr,\;X_2)$, and enzyme concentration $(2-14%,\;X_3)$ as variables. When variables were $70.28^{\circ}C\;(X_1),\;28.74\;hr\;(X_2),\;and\;11.30%\;(X_3)$, maximum content of selected three peaks of synthesized SL-TG species was predicted as 6.97 area%.

Structured lipids (SLs) were synthesized by enzymatic interesterification with evening primrose oil (EPO) and rice bran oil (RBO) in a batch-type reactor. The interesterification was performed using a water shaker for 24 hr at $55^{\circ}C$. Mixing speed was set at 200 rpm and Lipozyme RM IM (immobilized lipase from Rhizomucor miehei, 10% by weight of total substrates) was used as a biocatalyst. Rice bran oil and evening primrose oil were interesterified with various molar ratios (RBO : EPO, 1:3, 1:4, and 1:5 mol/mol). Reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography connected with evaporative light-scattering detector was performed to separate the triacylglycerol (TAG) species of SLs. In the fatty acid analysis, $\gamma$-linolenic acid (7.9 mol%), linoleic acid (67.3 mol%) and oleic acid (13.2 mol%) were the most abundant fatty acids in the SLs. During 24 hr reaction, most of the reaction occurred within 3 hr. TAG compositions, tocopherols and phytosterols were also analyzed. In the TAG species analysis, LLL (ECN=42, L=linoleic acid) dramatically decreased when the reaction time increased.
