Abstract The synthesis of symmetrical structured triglycerides (STG) through a bottom-up approach was previously shown to produce 1,3-dioleoyl-2-palmitoyl glycerol in significant quantities. This solvent-free lipase-catalyzed process, consisting of a low-temperature (40 °C) esterification step with glycerol dosing followed by a high-temperature (60 °C) esterification step, was further investigated in the production of symmetrical medium-and-long-chain triglycerides (MLCT). By replacing oleic acid with capric acid in the first step or the palmitic acid by either capric acid or lauric acid in the second step, the effects of free fatty chain length and sequence of fatty acid addition on STG production were established. These produced 1,3-dicaproyl-2-oleoyl glycerol, 1,3-dioleoyl-2-caproyl glycerol, and 1,3-dioleoyl-2-lauroyl glycerol at concentrations of 36.98 g, 36.77 g, and 37.08 g per 100 g of triglycerides respectively after 72 h at an overall FFA1:FFA2:Glycerol of 2:1:1 and 4 g Novozyme 435 per 100 g reactants, without the purification of intermediates and products. The sequence of fatty acid addition had the most significant effect as purer STG products can be obtained when the medium chain fatty acid is introduced in the first step. As the process was carried out without solvents, the STG produced are appropriate for functional food or nutraceutical applications.

The biocomposites were prepared from chitosan, carragenan and modified tapioca with lauric acid addition. The biocomposite were used as edible film material thus improving the mechanical characteristics. The purpose of this study was to determine the amount of lauric acid addition that produced biocomposites with the best characteristics. This study used experimental method. The different concentration of lauric acid used as the treatment was 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% from total solid of hydrocolloids materials (w/w). Data were analyzed statistically using the F test (ANOVA test) with confidence level of 95%. The results showed more than 10% addition of lauric acid decreased the value of moisture content, tensile strenght, percent elongation and water vapor transmission but increase thickness, opacity and transparency value. The addition of 10% lauric acid produced biocomposite with the best characteristics according to JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) which had the moisture content of 42.65%, thickness of 0.047 mm, tensile strength of 13.8 MPa, percent elongation of 29.2%, water vapor transmission rate of 8.5 g/m2/day, opacity 8.9% and transparency 7.5. This research used renewable and biodegradable materials that can be applied to produce edible packaging with the best characteristics and eco-friendly.
