THE BIOSYNTHESIS OF RICINOLEIC ACID [PDF]
1. Ricinoleic acid is shown to be synthesized in the immature castor bean seed only after 3-4 weeks from the time of fertilization. 2. Synthesis occurs both in the isolated embryo and the endosperm. 3. Linoleic acid does not act as precursor of ricinoleic acid in the isolated bean embryo. 4.

Incorporation of ricinoleic acid into glycerolipids [PDF]
Abstract The coenzyme A thiol ester of ricinoleic acid was synthesized and characterized. Ricinoleoyl-CoA has been tested as an acyl donor in several in vitro systems using rat liver microsomal acyltransferases. It is essentially inactive when 1-acyl- or 2-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphoryl choline are used as acceptors, however, it can serve as acyl ...

Preparation of Ricinoleic Acid from Castor Oil:A Review
Castor oil is a vegetable product extracted from Ricinus communis L (castor seed), which is primarily considered an important commercial value for the manufacturing of soaps, lubricants, coatings, etc. It is rich in hydroxylated fatty acids (ricinoleic acid, 89-92%) and is widely used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, oleochemical, and agricultural ...

Enzymatic biosynthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides
Candida rugosa lipase has been shown to have sufficient activity to catalyse the enzymatic synthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides in a batch reactor. The water requirements of the reactor change during the reaction: at the beginning of the process a minimum amount of water is necessary but, later, the reaction mixture must be dried out to obtain an ...
