Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil modification, and more specifically, to a structured phospholipid rich in functional fatty acids and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Functional fatty acids such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), arachidonic acid (ARA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), nervonic acid, and medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) are of great significance to human health. For example, DHA is a key component of brain cell membranes, participates in the formation and development of brain cells and the normal physiological activities of nerve cells, and is also closely related to the formation of brain thinking and memory. Nervonic acid is the core natural component of brain nerve fibers and nerve cells, which can repair and dredge damaged brain nerve fibers and promote the regeneration of nerve cells. Medium-chain fatty acids have the functions of reducing blood lipids and cholesterol and improving obesity-related metabolic disorders. However, the human body is difficult to synthesize these fatty acids with special structures and functions by itself and mainly relies on external intake to supplement. However, currently common functional fatty acid products are mostly ethyl ester type and glyceride type, which have the problem of low absorption and utilization rate.
[0003] Phospholipids are a class of important biomolecules, widely present in animal and plant tissues and microbial cell membranes, and possess a variety of key biological functions. Cephalin group can carry key brain nutrients to break through the blood-brain barrier and improve the absorption rate of nutrients. Research shows that phospholipid DHA has a higher absorption and utilization rate in the brain and nerve cells compared with other types of DHA. Therefore, combining functional fatty acids with phospholipids to prepare structured phospholipids rich in functional fatty acids such as nervonic acid and DHA to provide nutrients for the brain and nerves may be a more effective strategy for supplementing functional fatty acids.
[0004] Currently, the preparation methods of structured phospholipids mainly include natural extraction method, chemical synthesis method, microbial fermentation method, and enzymatic synthesis method. Among them, the natural extraction method has limitations such as high cost, cumbersome operation, and low extraction rate; the reaction conditions of the chemical synthesis method are relatively harsh, often requiring high temperature, strong acid or strong base environments, which are likely to damage the natural configuration of phospholipids, and the content of by-products is relatively high, limiting its application in industries such as food, medicine, and cosmetics; the microbial fermentation method is in the preliminary research stage; the enzymatic synthesis method has attracted wide attention due to its mild reaction conditions, environmental friendliness, and pollution-free characteristics.
[0005] Therefore, how to develop an efficient and green enzymatic synthesis method for preparing structured phospholipids rich in functional fatty acids such as nervonic acid and DHA to improve the absorption and utilization rate of functional fatty acids by the human body is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0029] The present invention also claims to protect a structured phospholipid rich in functional fatty acids prepared by the above preparation method.
[0030] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0031] The present invention first prepares core / shell nanosilica microspheres by the sol-gel method, and prepares hollow double-layer mesoporous silica microspheres (HdlMS) by selectively etching the core; then, through the modification of the surface with hydrophobic alkyl silane (n-octyltrichlorosilane) and nitrogen-containing alkyl chain (3-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethylamino]propyl-trimethoxysilane), the hollow double-layer mesoporous silica microspheres modified with bifunctional groups (NH2 / C8-HdlMS) are obtained; then, using it as a carrier, phospholipase A1 is immobilized by the physical adsorption method to obtain an immobilized phospholipase (PLA1@NH2 / C8-HdlMS); finally, it is added to the reaction system of "phospholipid-functional fatty acid ethyl ester-n-hexane" to catalyze the transesterification reaction to obtain a structured phospholipid product rich in functional fatty acids such as nervonic acid and DHA.

[0117] (3) Preparation of immobilized phospholipase
[0118] First, mix 50 mL of phospholipase A1 and 50 mL of PBS buffer solution with a pH of 6.0 to obtain a phospholipase solution; then mix 1 g of bifunctional group-modified hollow double-layer mesoporous silica microspheres and 100 mL of the phospholipase solution, incubate on a shaker at 30 °C for 1 h, centrifuge, filter, wash repeatedly with PBS three times, and freeze-dry to obtain immobilized phospholipase;

[0121] Material characterization and catalytic performance
[0122] 1. SEM and TEM characterization
[0123] Carry out SEM and TEM characterization on the bifunctional group-modified hollow double-layer mesoporous silica microspheres prepared in Example 1 respectively.
[0124] It can be seen from Figure 1 that the hollow double-layer mesoporous silica microspheres exhibit a uniform double-layer hollow spherical morphology, with an average diameter of about 469 nm. The shell thickness of the hollow double-layer mesoporous silica microspheres is about 56 nm, while the inner shell thickness is about 26 nm, showing good structural regularity.
[0125] 2. Incorporation rate of functional fatty acids
[0126] Take the structured phospholipids rich in functional fatty acids prepared in Examples 1-6 respectively, carry out methylation respectively, detect by GC, and calculate the incorporation rate of functional fatty acids.
[0127] The results are shown in Table 1.
[0128] Table 1 Incorporation Rates of Functional Fatty Acids in Structured Phospholipids of Examples 1 - 6
[0129] Structural phospholipid Functional fatty acid Incorporation rate / % Example 1 Docosahexaenoic acid 67 Example 2 Eicosapentaenoic acid 49 Example 3 Caprylic acid 39 Example 4 Capric acid 49 Example 5 Linolenic acid 60 Example 6 Nervonic acid 82
[0130] As can be seen from Table 1, phospholipase A1 has a greater preference for long - chain and unsaturated fatty acids, and the incorporation rate of medium - chain fatty acids is less than 50%; while the incorporation rate of long - chain unsaturated fatty acids all exceeds 60%.
[0131] 3. Composition Content of Phospholipid Fatty Acids
[0132] After different functional phospholipids are incorporated, the composition content of phospholipid fatty acids is shown in Table 2.

[0135]
[0136] 4. Relative Activity of Immobilized Phospholipase after Recycling and Reuse
[0137] The immobilized phospholipase recovered from Example 1 was washed 3 times with n - hexane solution, dried, and put into a new reaction for repetition. The conditions were the same as those in Example 1, and the results are as Figure 2 shown.
[0138] As Figure 2 can be seen, taking the first functional fatty acid incorporation rate as 100% activity, after repeating 9 times, the relative enzyme activity of the immobilized phospholipase remains above 80%.
