Peroxisomal β-oxidation and Production of γ-decalactone by the Yeast Rhodotorula aurantiaca

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2010
γ-Decalactone is a fruity aroma compound resulting from the peroxisomal β-oxidation of ricinoleic acid by yeasts. During the β-oxidation of fatty acids, the acyl-CoA oxidase and thioesterase play an important role. In R.

Fatty acid composition of Brunfelsia uniflora (Solanaceae) seed oil

open access: yesGrasas y Aceites, 1995
The seeds of Brunfelsia uniflora contained 30.5% of oil. The oil was analysed and components were identified by infrared (IR), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and chemical methods. Linoleic acid predominated (75.5%) followed by oleic (11.8%)

Enzymatic biosynthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides

open access: yesBiochemical Engineering Journal, 2005
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 ...

New insights on the metabolism of ricinoleic acid in ruminants [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2017
Dairy goats were fed a total mixed ration with or without the inclusion of castor oil [40 g/kg of dry matter (DM)] to study the metabolism of ricinoleic acid (12-OH,cis-9-18:1). Ten goats, at 39.7 ± 4.0 d in milk, were individually penned and allocated at random to the 2 experimental diets. Goats were manually milked twice a day.
