Production of γ-decalactone by Yarrowia lipolytica : insights into experimental conditions and operating mode optimization [PDF]
BACKGROUND γ-Decalactone production from ricinoleic acid biotransformation derived from the triglycerides in castor oil by Yarrowia lipolytica, has been widely described in literature in studies concerning lipidic metabolism that leads to lactones ...

Chemistry and physical properties of estolides
Estolides are a developing class of natural and synthetic compounds that have been synthesized from hydroxy oils like castor and lesquerella or by the condensation of fatty acids across the olefin of a second fatty acid.

Fed-batch versus batch cultures of Yarrowia lipolytica for γ-decalactone production from methyl ricinoleate [PDF]
Constant medium feeding rate and intermittent fed-batch fermentation strategies were investigated aiming to increase the yields of γ-decalactone production by Yarrowia lipolytica, using methyl ricinoleate as substrate and ricinoleic acid source.

The acid lipase of the castor bean. Properties and substrate specificity*
A castor bean lipase with a pH optimum of 4.3 is found within the fatty layer obtained by centrifuging a homogenate of the bean; most of the fat may be removed by extraction with ethyl ether in the presence of saturated sodium chloride solution, yielding

The Effects of Possible Contamination on the Radiocarbon Dating of the Dead Sea Scrolls II: Empirical Methods to Remove Castor Oil and Suggestions for Redating [PDF]
While kept at the Rockefeller Museum in East Jerusalem, many Dead Sea Scroll fragments were exposed to castor oil by the original team of editors in the course of cleaning the parchments.

Phase separation on ricinoleic acid freezing [PDF]
Phase separation material essentially influence storage capacity or heat release. Ricinoleic acid is potential to be used as a heat storage material. However, the nature of the phase separation of the material has not been studied yet. Therefore, this research was aim to determine the nature of the material.
