An enzymatic process was developed for the preparation of a nutritionally enriched 1,3-diacylglycerol(DAG)-rich oil from a blend of refined sunflower and rice bran oils. The process involves hydrolysis of vegetable oil blend using Candida cylindracea followed by esterification with glycerol using Lipozyme RM1M. The resultant DAG-rich oil contains 84% of DAG (66% of 1,3-DAG, 18% of 1,2-DAG) and 16% of triacylglycerol (TAG) along with micro nutrients like γ-oryzanol, tocotrienols, tocopherols and phytosterols. Nutritional studies of the DAG-rich oil were conducted in Wistar rats and compared with sunflower oil (SFO). The calorific value of the DAG-rich oil was estimated to be 6.45 Kcals/g as against 9.25 Kcals/g for SFO. The serum and liver cholesterol and TAG levels in rats fed with 1,3-DAG-rich oil were found to be significantly reduced as compared to rats fed diet containing SFO. We conclude that 1,3-DAG-rich oil is a low calorie fat and exhibits hypolipidemic effects.

Exploring Diacylglycerol Oil-Based Oleogels as Effective Stabilizers in Peanut Butter: Performance, Structural Insights, and Sensory Evaluation.

In the pursuit of reducing oil separation in peanut butter, oleogels synthesized from diacylglycerol (DAG)-rich peanut oils, using glycerol monostearate (GMS) as the gelator, were examined as alternative stabilizers. In comparison to triacylglycerol (TAG)-rich peanut oils, the DAG oil-based oleogels exhibited better oil-binding capacities across increasing GMS concentrations. Intriguingly, thermal and rheological assessments pointed to a weaker network structure in DAG oil oleogels, as evidenced by their lower crystallization temperatures and reduced viscoelastic parameters (G' and G'').

Different chain lengths diacylglycerols (DAG) (long- and medium-chain) were synthesized from peanut and coconut oils. The effects of DAG with different chain lengths on body fat, blood lipids, and lipid metabolism-related enzymes in the liver and adipose tissue of C57BL/6J mice were investigated. Compared to peanut and coconut oils containing triacylglycerol (TAG), DAG-rich oils can significantly reduce the body weight, kidney weight, serum triglyceride (TG) content, hepatic fatty acid synthase (FAS), and Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) enzyme levels (p < 0.

Background: Diacylglycerol (DAG) reduces body weight, suppresses body fat accumulation, and lowers the blood lipid concentration, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) can reduce the risk of occurrence of coronary artery diseases.
Results: DAG-rich algae oil with a high DHA content (55.9%) was synthesized via the lipase-catalyzed glycerolysis of algae oil, which consisted of triacylglycerol (43.

Utilization of algae oil and glycerol for preparation of value-added products is vital for sustainable development of related industries. In this study, we aimed to prepare highly pure diacylglycerols (DAG) rich in docosapentaenoic acid (DPA). First, content of DPA in form of triacylglycerols (TAG) increased from 16.
