Method for preparing long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid glyceride rich in fish oil n-3 by enzyme method and product thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of grease, and particularly relates to a method for preparing long-chain polyunsaturated fatty glyceride rich in fish oil n-3 by an enzyme method and a product thereof.
Background
fish oil in the deep sea is a major source of n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (mainly eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA, C20:5n-3 and docosahexaenoic acid, DHA, C22:6 n-3). n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids have long been healthy nutritional supplements with many health benefits, including effects to improve cardiovascular health, brain function and overall health during pregnancy EPA and DHA are non-essential n-3 fatty acids because the human body can convert essential α -linolenic acid (ALA) to EPA and DHA.
Because digestive enzymes in human bodies have certain substrate selectivity, the hydrolysis activity of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is not high, and the digestion and absorption of the deep sea fish oil are influenced to a certain extent. In view of the important physiological functions of the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids of fish oil, it can be converted into diglyceride or (and) monoglyceride forms by a process which can act as a predigestion and is beneficial to the digestive absorption of fish oil. Meanwhile, diglyceride or (and) monoglyceride rich in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid can be used as an emulsifier in food, so that fish oil is developed into an important food additive to be applied to common food, and a new channel is provided for the public to supplement n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid.
However, when the existing research process is used for preparing diglyceride or (and) monoglyceride of fish oil source, fish oil is generally directly used as raw material, and the product is obtained by using a glycerolysis method, wherein the content of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid in the product is not high, and the additional value of the fish oil derived product is limited to a certain extent. Therefore, a method for enriching the fish oil n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid glyceride and a product thereof are needed in the field.

Example 4
(1) Adding squid oil and ethanol into a sealable batch reactor according to a substrate molar ratio of 1:1 (fish oil/ethanol), respectively adding 12 wt% of Lipozyme RM IM, and reacting for 12 hours at the temperature of 40 ℃ and the stirring speed of 800rpm to obtain an intermediate enzymolysis product rich in n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid, wherein the content of diglyceride in the product is 14.2%, the content of monoglyceride in the product is 1.7%, and the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is 41.6%.
(2) After ethanol and fatty acid ethyl ester of the intermediate enzymolysis product are respectively removed by adopting reduced pressure distillation and molecular distillation, the intermediate enzymolysis product and glycerol are added into an intermittent reactor according to the substrate molar ratio of 1:5 (intermediate enzymolysis product/glycerol), 10 wt% of Novozym 435 is added, and the reaction is carried out for 8 hours at the temperature of 60 ℃ and the stirring speed of 600rpm, so as to obtain the monoglyceride product, wherein the monoglyceride content is 51.1%, the diglyceride content is 20.3%, and the n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid content in the monoglyceride is 43.4%.
(3) After ethanol and fatty acid ethyl ester of the intermediate enzymolysis product are respectively removed by adopting reduced pressure distillation and molecular distillation, the intermediate enzymolysis product and glycerol are added into an intermittent reactor according to the substrate molar ratio of 1:1.5 (intermediate enzymolysis product/glycerol), 10 wt% of Novozym 435 is added, and the reaction is carried out for 10 hours at the temperature of 60 ℃ and the stirring speed of 400rpm, so as to obtain the diglyceride product, wherein the content of diglyceride is 38.3%, the content of monoglyceride is 25.5%, and the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in the diglyceride is 42.1%.
In view of the fact that the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in glyceride prepared by the conventional method is low, the method adopts a two-step enzyme method reaction to prepare the monoglyceride or diglyceride product rich in the n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid.
Step 1, catalyzing alcoholysis reaction of fish oil by using Lipase RM IM, Lipase TL IM or Lipase AY-30SD which is low in activity and mainly contains EPA and DHA as n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids as catalysts to obtain an intermediate enzymolysis product with high n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid content, wherein the n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid content is more than 45%;
step 2, ethanol and fatty acid ethyl ester in the intermediate enzymatic product are respectively removed by reduced pressure distillation and molecular distillation, the intermediate enzymatic product is catalyzed and hydrolyzed by Novozym 435 lipase, through condition adjustment, monoglyceride or diglyceride products are respectively prepared, wherein the content of monoglyceride in the monoglyceride product is more than 65%, the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is more than 45%, the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in the monoglyceride is more than 50%, the content of diglyceride in the diglyceride product is more than 50%, the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is more than 45%, and the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in the diglyceride is more than 50%, so that the problem that the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in the monoglyceride or diglyceride products prepared by the conventional method is low is solved. The inventors have further studied and found that the content of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in the monoglyceride product and the diglyceride product is low when the process and conditions of the present invention are not used.
Meanwhile, as a glyceride product is generated through alcoholysis reaction in the step (1), in the reaction in the step (2), a certain amount of monoglyceride and diglyceride exist, so that emulsification can be achieved in the reaction process, and after the glycerol is added and stirred, the reaction system is changed into a microemulsion system, so that the contact area of the glycerol and the grease is increased, and the specific surface area of the lipase in play is increased, and meanwhile, due to the existence of a large number of oil-water interfaces, the lipase is favorable for opening a cover of an active center, and the lipase is favorable for playing a catalytic role, so that in the reaction in the step (2), the reaction rate is higher, and the production efficiency is greatly improved.
In conclusion, the glyceride product rich in n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is prepared by adopting a two-step enzyme method reaction for the first time, firstly, n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is enriched by utilizing the 'inertia' of lipase to n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid through an enzyme-catalyzed alcoholysis reaction, and an intermediate enzymolysis product rich in n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is obtained; after ethanol and fatty acid ethyl ester are respectively removed by reduced pressure distillation and molecular distillation, the diglyceride or monoglyceride product rich in n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid is respectively obtained by the glycerolysis reaction catalyzed by enzyme and the adjustment of conditions.
