What are specific structured lipids (SL) Lipids with a - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

What are specific structured lipids (SL) • Lipids with a predetermined fatty acid profile and a specific structure, e.g.: C8:0 C18:2 C8:0 • Produced by e.g. 1,3 specific lipase (Lipozyme RM IM) • Purified by e.g. short path destillation to remove FFA

Structured lipids for clinical use and functional foods � High energy supplements with essential fatty acids for: - Patients with cystic fibrosis and short bowel disease - Patients recovering from burn wounds and operations - Pre-term infants � Infant milk formulas � Fats with CLA (antiatherogenic- and anticarcinogenic effects and regulatory effect on immune system) � Low energy fats � Effect on nitrogen balance (functional feed)
