Production of Human Milk Fat Replacement Rich of 1,3-dioleoyl-2-palmitoilglycerol From Enzymatic Interesterification Tripalmitin,Ethyl Oleate And Mixture of VCO,Soybean Oil And Fish Oil

Human Milk is naturally the only source of food for infant in their early life. It contains 2-6% lipid which provides about 50% of the total energy needed by the infant. Human milk fat (HMF) mainly as TAG with the specific fatty acid composition, palmitic acid (C16:0) (20-25%), which is primary located at sn-2 of glycerol bonds (70%) and oleic acid (C18:1), located at sn-1,3 (35%). HMF also provide fatty acids such as linoleic acid, linolenic acid, EPA, DHA and lauric acid that are very important for infant. The purposes of this research are to synthesize of 1,3-dioleoyl-2-palmitoilglycerol (OPO) and to determine the best composition of OPO, VCO, soybean oil and fish oil for HMFS production for infant formula. Interesterification of tripalmitin and ethyl oleate using immobilized lipase from Rhizomucor miehei (Lipozym RM IM) were used to synthesize of OPO. Interesterification product of mixed VCO, soybean oil and fish oil that are source of lauric acid, linoleic acid, α-linolenic, EPA and DHA, were formulated in mass ratio (58:20:20:2) and (70:18:10:2) for obtaining HMFS which have fatty acids composition similar or close to HMF. Composition of fatty acids from product were analyzed by GCMS. From this research, were obtained HMFS containing palmitic acid as much as 28.89% where 84.49% of that are located at sn-2 while sn-1,3 position are dominated by oleic acid as much as 55.11% from the total 38.7% and 70:18:10:2 w/w is the best composition of interesterification product, VCO, soybean oil and fish oil to obtain HMFS similar to HMF.
