Modificação por via enzimática da composição triglicerídica do óleo de piqui (Caryocar brasiliense Camb) Piqui (Caryocar brasiliense Camb) oil triglyceride composition modification by enzymatic way

<abstract language="eng">Piqui (Caryocar brasiliense Camb) oil was transformed into a cocoa butter-like fat through an enzymatic interesterification reaction using Lipozyme in the presence of stearic acid that was incorporated in the sn 1,3-3,1 position into triglyceride. Stearic acid incorporation was determined by HPLC, based on the quantification of the principal triglycerides (POP, POS e SOS) found in cocoa butter. The proposed process was feasible with a reaction time of 240 minutes with 10% of Lipozyme at 70ºC and substract weight ratio of 0,33 (stearic acid:piqui oil).
