<p>Menhaden oil was enzymatically modified with caprylic (C8:0) and/or stearic acid (C18:0) to produce structured lipids (SL) with high amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and melting point of 25-35 degrees centigrade. Linear interpolation was used to determine substrate molar ratios for the reaction. Thermal behavior was determined with DSC and volatile oxidation products by solid phase microextraction (SPME) fiber.</p>
<p>The data files are provided in their original .xlsx format, as well as in .csv. The folders are broken down into the following categories: linear interpolation initial experiments (10g, various molar ratios (1:1,1:3, 1:5), and validation under optimal conditions (both 10g and 500g), and finally large-scale reactions (1kg). There is also a folder (“Data”) containing the initial 10g reactions for the caprylic/stearic acid blends (A,B,C).</p>
