Importance of fats and oils to health and well- being:
The highest source of energy for the body compared to carbohydrates and proteins Carriers for oil soluble vitamins (A, E, K) May contain essential and conditionally
essential fatty acids that are not produced at all, or not produced efficiently, by the human body
3
TM
Importance of fats and oils to the food industry:
Fats and oils add flavor, lubricity, texture to foods and contribute to the feeling of satiety upon consumption After extraction and refining, they can be
processed into products such as margarine, shortening, salad and frying oils. Processed fats and oils are important
functional ingredients in foods

Oils and Fats Modification Methods • Different functionalities (nutritional and physical)
require specific compositions that are usually not found in a single natural fat or oil
• For this reason, fats and oils are often modified in
order to achieve these desired compositions and thus physical and nutritional properties – For example, melting behaviour, solid fat content and
crystal habit are important factors in the formulation of shortening and margarine, while decreasing PUFAs to increase oxidative stability is important in frying oil formulations

Oils and Fats Modification Methods
Gunstone, 2006
1.Blending 2.Fractionation 3.Hydrogenation 4.Interesterification (chemical or enzymatic) 5.Genetic Improvement (GIO)
14
TM
Blending
• Different base-stocks are mixed together to obtain a specific composition, consistency, and/or stability in the final product
These base-stocks may include:
Partially or fully hydrogenated oils Interesterified oils and fats Fractions from winterized or fractionated oils
15
TM
Fractionation
• Fractionation (solvent or dry) leads to the separation of fats and oils into two or more fractions with different melting points
• Also it could be used to remove an undesirable minor component such as waxes in oils during dewaxing and winterization processes to produce salad oil
16
TM
Fractionation The palm oil industry uses oil fractionation process to alter, extend and improve the functionality of palm oil for use in different food and feed applications.

Genetic Improvement
• New mutants can produce oils with specific compositions such as high saturated, high monounsatuared or low polyunsaturated fatty acid contents
• These GI oils and fats can be used in the formulation of shortening, margarine and frying oils
• Microalgal oils are an exciting new development in this area (Solazyme Inc.)

Interesterification • Interesterification is a chemical reaction that induces the rearrangement
of fatty acids within and between triacylglycerols
• In the food industry, interesterification can be carried out using a chemical catalyst or an enzyme. Sodium methoxide is generally used as a catalyst in chemical esterification, while lipases are used in enzymatic esterification. Chemical interesterification is a random reaction while enzymatic interesterification can be random or regiospecific.
• Used since the late 40’s to modify the crystallization behavior of lard
(induce beta prime tendencies), used successfully to make products such as Becel margarine (Unilever) for several decades now, used since the early 80’s with enzymatic catalysts to make cocoa butter equivalents and other structured lipids.

Structured Lipids (SLs)
• This term is often used to denote triacylglycerols for which some of the naturally ocuring long-chain fatty acids at the sn-1 and -3 positions have been replaced by medium-chain length fatty acids such as caprylic acid (8:0) or capric acid (10:0), long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (DHA, EPA, DPA), long-chain omega-6 fatty acids (AA), or other “foreign” fatty acids
35
TM
Structured Lipids - MCT • Medium chain fatty acids are easily hydrolyzed and
readily absorbed • Medium-chain fatty acids are directly metabolized for
energy rather than accumulated as depot fat • Thus, structured lipids are a concentrated and readily
available source of energy and have a reduced tendency to promote obesity
• MCTs are useful food supplements for people with chronic health conditions such as impaired gastrointestinal function, liver disease or CAD.
• MCTs have also been used as a valuable component in designing infant formula, beverages, snack bars, confectionary products, and supplements for athletes

Human Milk-fat Substitute
Human milk fat contains 20 to 25% palmitic acid (about 70% is esterified to the sn-2 position), while palmitic acid in vegetable oils is esterified to sn-1 and sn-3
Palmitic acid is released from sn-1 and sn-3 positions in free fatty form acid after digestion by gastric and pancreatic lipases. In this form, it is not as readily absorbed and can bind to calcium, forming calcium soap. While, palmitic acid in the sn-2 position is more easily absorbed as a 2-MAG. Calcium soap may contribute to comparatively harder stools and calcium and palmitic acid losses
39
TM
Human Milk-fat Substitute
• The aim here is the production of 1,3-oleoyl-2-palmitoyl glycerol as the main component in human milk-fat substitute
• Acidolysis of animal fat (lard) with oleic acid (or oleic acid ethyl ester) using immobilized 1,3-specific lipase
• Human milk contains arachidonic acid (AA), as well as DHA. So, 1,3-arachidonoyl-2-palmitoyl glycerol is synthesized by acidolysis of tripalmitin or lard with AA using immobilized microbial lipase. Same can be done with DHA.

• Structured lipid beverages provide more rapid energy source for people on modified diets, or who experience involuntary weight loss, and for patients who are recovering from illness or injury – For example, beverages can be formulated from
canola oil and caprylic acid after enzymatic interesterification (acidolysis) with an sn-1,3 specific lipase obtained from Rhizomucor miehei
