Structured oils prepared by enzymatic transacylation with triacylglycerols (TAGs) and various fatty acids (FAs) were characterized. Transacylation with trilaurin and saturated FAs (C4:0-C16:0) was performed using Lipozyme RM-IM under standard reaction conditions. The structured oils thus produced had transacylation ratios of 25-37%, as medium-chain FAs &gt; long-chain FAs &gt; short-chain FAs. This result confirmed that short-chain FAs have little reactivity in enzymatic transacylation. All prepared oils shared the same composition of TAG molecular species, as demonstrated by HPLC analysis, and contained a mixture of mono-substituted, di-substituted, and non-substituted TAGs. The reaction conditions for transacylation with TAGs and short-chain FAs were optimized to improve transacylation ratios. The introduction ratios of C4:0, C5:0, and C6:0 into trilaurin were increased to 52.4, 42.5, and 34.1%, respectively, by extending the reaction time. Transacylation between TAGs and short-chain FAs was further examined by using Lipase PL. C4:0 was introduced at 51.1%, the same ratio as for Lipozyme RM-IM. When C5:0 and C6:0 were used as the FA substrate, the transacylation ratios obtained were 47.7 and 43.4%, respectively, higher than those for Lipase RM-IM. Lipase PL is therefore useful for introducing short-chain FAs into TAGs.
