Separatory funnel was used to extract FFAs and HVCO (tri-, di-, and
monoglyceride).
Because Jason didn't refer to the
monoglycerides and calcium stearoyl lactylate in his reply, we left him a message.
Human milk contains a lipase enzyme that produces free fatty acids and
monoglycerides from the milk fat when the milk is allowed to stand.
That is, conversion of triglycerides to diglycerides, followed by the conversion of diglycerides to
monoglycerides. The glycerides are converted into glycerol and yielding one ester molecule in each step.
However, majority of the lipases are capable of converting triglycerides, diglycerides,
monoglycerides and free fatty acids to fatty acid ethyl esters in addition to fat hydrolysis (1,4).
Recently, results from many studies revealed that monolaurin, the
monoglycerides of lauric acid from coconut oil had antimicrobial activity against various gram positive and gram negative organisms, including Escherichia vulneris, Enterobcater spp.13, Helicobacter pylori 14, Staphylococcus aureus 15, Candida spp., including C.
From these results it can be concluded that emulsion of jojoba oil ((Simondisia chinensis), stearic acid, corn starch,
monoglycerides and water is very effective in controlling the decay and maintaining the quality and shelf stability of kinnow.
Castor oil and glycerol were transformed in ratios of 2:1 to 1:2 to di- and
monoglycerides and subsequently converted to acrylic esters.
