Production method of oil or fat containing polyunsaturated fatty acid-containing triglyceride
The present invention relates to a production method of an oil containing triglyceride in which medium chain fatty acids are bound to the 1- and 3-positions of the triglyceride and polyunsaturated fatty acid is bound to the 2 position by allowing lipase, which specifically acts on ester bonds at the 1- and 3-positions that has been immobilized on a porous ion exchange resin support having a pore size of about 100 Angstroms or more, to act on a mixture of medium-chain fatty acids and raw material oil containing at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid selected from the group consisting of ω6 series polyunsaturated fatty acid having 18 or more carbon atoms and 3 or more double bonds and ω9 series polyunsaturated fatty acid having 18 or more carbon atoms and 2 or more double bonds, but not containing ω3 series polyunsaturated fatty acid, oils and fats or triglycerides obtained by that method, and the use of the oils and fats or triglycerides in a food, beverage or pharmaceutical composition.
1. An oil or fat or triglyceride containing 30-90 mol % of triglycerides in which medium-chain fatty acids are bound to the 1,3-positions of the triglycerides, and at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid selected from the group consisting of 6,9-octadienoic acid, 8,11-eicosadienoic acid, and 5,8,11-eicosatrienoic acid is bound to the 2-position.
2. An oil or fat or triglyceride containing 5 mol % or more of triglycerides in which medium-chain fatty acids are bound to the 1,3-position of the triglycerides and dihomo-γ-linolenic acid is bound to the 2-position.
3. An oil or fat or triglyceride containing 5 mol % or more of triglycerides in which medium-chain fatty acids are bound to the 1,3-positions of the triglycerides and 5,8,11-eicosatrienoic acid is bound to the 2-position.
4. A food composition comprising blending an oil or fat or triglyceride according to claim 1 according to a special nutritional demand.
5. A food composition according to claim 4 wherein, the food composition is a functional food, nutritional supplement food, newborn formula, infant formula, baby food, food to be consumed during pregnancy or geriatric food.
6. An animal feed comprising blending an oil or fat or triglyceride according to claim 1 .
7. A therapeutic nutritional food containing an oil or fat or triglyceride according to claim 1 , and depending on the case, blended with a neutral carrier suitable for oral, intestinal or parenteral administration.
8. A pharmaceutical composition containing at least one oil or fat or triglyceride according to claim 1 .
