Enzymatic synthesis of phosphatidyl-EPA/DHA using Candida antarctica lipase B immobilized on mesoporous MIL-88 A.

ABSTRACT: Mesoporous MIL-88A (Meso-MIL-88A) shows significant potential as an effective carrier for immobilizing large molecules such as lipases. This study investigates Meso-MIL-88A immobilized lipase for the catalysis of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) incorporation into soybean phosphatidylcholine. Phosphatidyl-EPA and phosphatidyl-DHA are known for their superior health benefits and have garnered significant global attention. Firstly, we developed a novel and green water-washing strategy to synthesize Meso-MIL-88A, demonstrating its significant potential as an effective carrier for immobilizing large molecules such as lipases. Nitrogen adsorption/desorption and XPS analyses revealed that water as the eluent yielded larger average pore diameters and lower sulfur residue
