  • We investigated why aspen extractives are more resistant in kraft pulping than pine extractives. Residual extractives content in aspen kraft pulps were 0.5~1.1% compared with 0.1~0.2% in pine pulps. This different response arises from the different composition of extractives in wood chips. Resin acids in pine were almost completely removed in kraft pulping but those are not existence in aspen. Slower saponification of aspen steryl esters resulted from different chemical structure of aspen steryl esters. Main sterols in aspen steryl esters were 24-methyl cyclolanostenol which was highly resistant to alkaline hydrolysis with its characteristic steric hindrance. Sterols in aspen were not well removed in kraft pulping. The relative composition of sterol in aspen kraft pulps was increased with increasing pulping time. The presence of fatty acids in aspen kraft pulps is considered to unusual. Fatty acids in alkaline are supposed to be well ionized and removed well in the washing stage. Nevertheless, there were significant amount of fatty acids remaining in aspen kraft pulps.

  • The compositions of residual extractives in woodmeal, unbleached and oxygen-delignified aspen kraft pulps were investigated with gas chromatography(GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with focus on fate of extractives in kraft pulping and oxygen delignification. Steryl esters and shorter retention time (shorter than palmitic acid) extractives were main extractives in aspen woodmeal. Shorter retention time extractives were well removed in kraft pulping. Sterol esters were hydrolyzed to sterols and fatty acids. Sterols and fatty acids were two major extractives classes in unbleached kraft pulps. Linoleic acid was main fatty acids in unbleached pulps compared with palmitic acid which is generally found in aspen woodmeal. Sterolsand fatty acids were also two major extractives classes in oxygen-delignified kraft pulps. However, linoleic acid was well removed in oxygen delignification.

  • Plant steryl esters have good effects on plasma cholesterol level and are used as functional food ingredient. Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) presents mainly in animal foods and has a good benefit and medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) are a rapid energy source for human. In this study, we produced the ${\beta}$-sitosterol esters from CLA and MCFAs using various lipases as catalysts. Among lipases, AYS (from Candida rugosa) was the most effective for synthesis of ${\beta}$-sitosterol esters in the presence of water (24.35% conversion) or hexane (25.33% conversion). The second esterification extent was obtained by lipase AK (from Pseudomonas sp), showing 10.26% conversion in water and 15.94% conversion in hexane, respectively. The reaction condition was 1:3 molar ratio (${\beta}$-sitosterol:fatty acid, 1:3) and stirred (175 rpm) at 55$^{\circ}C$ in water bath shaker for 48h.

  • Total lipids of Korean black Soybean were extracted, purified and fractionated into three lipid classes (Neutral lipid, NL; glycolipid, GL;phospholipid, PL) and the composition of lipid class and fatty acid were studied. Total lipids of black soybean consisted of 88.5% NL, 2.5% GL and-9.0% PL. In the NL, triglycerides were predominant(80.4%) and also sterol esters, hydrocarbons, diglycerides, free fatty acids and sterols were identified. The major component of GL were monogalactosyl diglycerides and esterified steryl glycosides, and then cerebrosides, steryl glycosides, digalactosyl diglycerides were also found. As major component of the PL, phosphatidyl ethanolamine and phosphatidyl choline were observed, other compounds such as phosphatidyl inositol, phosphatidyl serine and lysophosphatidyl choline were also determined. The major fatty acids in the NL and GL were linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid, however, PL contained higher relative content of palmitic acid and lower level of oleic acid compared with those of NL and GL.

  • Lipids isolated from three barley samples were identified and quantitated by column, thin layer and gas liquid chromatographic techniques. These lipids were shown to consist of 69.3-73.1% neutral lipids, 9.6-16.5% glycolipids, and 14.2-17.9% phospholipids. Among the neutral lipids, triglycerides were predominant (54.2 to 55.7%) with smaller amounts of 1,2-diglycerides, 1,3-diglycerides, free sterols, free fatty acids, steryl esters, and three unknown being present. Among the glycolipids, digalactosyl diglycerides (31.3 to 33.2%) and monogalactosyl diglycerides (26.2 to 29.6%) were the most abundant. Esterified steryl glycosides, steryl glycosides, cerebrosides, sulfolipids, and an unknown component were present as minor components. Of the phosopholipids, phosphatidyl cholines and serines, lysophosphatidyl cholines, and phosphatidyl ethanolamines were the major components, comprising over 80% of this class. The major fatty acids in the total and the three lipid classes were palmitic, oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids. However, the neutral lipids fraction contained more oleic acid than other lipid fractions, and the phospholipids fraction contained more palmitic acid than the other lipid fractions.
