摘要:
A process to refine esters of conjugated linoleic acids via distillation in a single or multi-pass distillation operation is provided. Thermal rearrangement of conjugated linoleic acid components during distillation is prevented or reduced by the use of a low residence time and/or reduced pressure distillation apparatus. A process to produce refined esters of conjugated linoleic acids is also provided. The process transesterifies a linoleic acid-containing oil to generate an alkyl ester composition which further undergoes isomerization at a temperatures typically between about 90-140 °C to form an ester stream containing conjugated linoleic acid esters, which is then distilled to obtain the refined esters of conjugated linoleic acids. The transesterification and isomerization steps can be performed in one reaction vessel without an intervening distillation step. The transesterification and isomerization steps can occur concurrently in a continuous reaction system using a dual reaction zone apparatus. Refined ester compositions produced by the processes and enriched in desirable conjugated linoleic acid isomers are also contemplated.
摘要:
The present technology generally relates to high purity polyol monoesters, and improved processes for producing high purity monoesters of a polyol and a fatty acid or fatty acid derivative by adding the fatty acid or fatty acid derivative to a preheated polyol at a desired rate and at an appropriate reaction temperature. The present technology also generally relates to liquid cleansing compositions comprising a high purity propylene glycol monoester, where such compositions preferably comprise a propylene glycol ester having at least about 80% by weight monoester content based on the total weight of the propylene glycol ester.

摘要:
A process to manufacture conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)-containing materials including conjugated linoleic salts and acids that are enriched in desirable cis-9, trans-11- and trans-10, cis-12-CLA isomers and are low in certain undesirable isomers. The process generally entails isomerization of an alkyl ester of a linoleic acid-containing material, such as sunflower oil or safflower oil, to effectuate conjugation of the double bonds, followed by saponification of the resultant CLA-containing fatty acid ester to produce a CLA-containing fatty acid salt, optionally followed by neutralization of the CLA-containing fatty acid salt with an acid source to produce a CLA-containing fatty acid.
摘要:
The present technology provides a process of reducing, removing or eliminating organohalo, glycidol, and oxirane species from carboxylic acid esters streams and crude and refined triglyceride oils to provide a carboxylic acid ester stream or triglyceride oil with reduced levels or essentially free of organohalo, glycidyl or other oxirane species. The process includes adding to the carboxylic acid ester stream or triglyceride oil an amount of a carboxylate anion and a cation counterion sufficient to react with the organohalo, glycidyl and oxirane species present.
摘要:
A process to manufacture conjugated fatty acids or their derivatives, in particular long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (e.g., CLAs) or their derivatives, using an improved catalyst system that isomerizes the fatty acids and their derivatives in an efficient, cost-effective manner. The improved catalyst system includes a metal alkoxide or amide catalyst chelated with an appropriate chelating agent or a metal alkoxide formed from another metal alkoxide in the described process.

Provided are alternative sources of ketone bodies for reducing or eliminating symptoms of Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also called Lou Gehrig's disease), Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, epilepsy and other diseases or disorders characterized by impaired glucose metabolism. The alternative sources of ketone bodies include mono-, di- and triglyceride esters of acetoacetate and mixtures thereof, and/or mono-, di- and triglyceride esters of 3-hydroxybutyrate and mixtures thereof. These glyceride esters can be administered orally as a dietary supplement or in a nutritional composition.
摘要:
A process for preparing conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) or derivatives thereof from ricinoleic acid, lower alkyl esters of ricinoleic acid, or salts thereof. The CLA is formed by reacting a carboxylic acid, or anhydride, anhydride equivalent, or ester thereof with the ricinoleic acid or derivative to form an intermediate having a carboxylic ester at the 12-hydroxy position of the ricinoleic acid or derivative, and reacting the intermediate with a base to form a cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid.
