Process optimization using response surface design for diacylglycerol synthesis from palm fatty acid distillate by enzymatic esterification

Diacylglycerols (DAG) were synthesized by lipase-catalyzed esterification of glycerol with palm fatty acid distillate(PFAD). Lipase from Rhizomucor miehei was used and the reaction was carried out at 45°C. After 24 h, the reaction productswere sampled and the DAG content was determined using high pe...
