Abstract
Lipase mediated interesterification of acylglycerols from corn oil with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was studied in several organic solvents. Two commercially available lipases, IM‐60 from Mucor miehei and Chirazyme L‐2 from Candida antarctica brought about greatest extents of interesterification. Hexane was the best solvent from the standpoint of both maximizing the reaction rate and the extent of interesterification.
