Publication number: 20060286266Abstract: An enzymatic process for the kinetic separation of alkyl esters under organic solvent free conditions is disclosed. Alkyl esters obtained from e.g. fish oil are reacted with glycerol, in the presence of water, at different rates in an evacuated chamber. The reaction is terminated prior to reaching equilibrium and the enriched alkyl ester fraction is isolated from the reaction mixture by short path distillation.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 23, 2006Publication date: December 21, 2006Inventors: Per Saebo, Inge Bruheim, Daniele Mancinelli, Asgeir Saebo

Patent number: 7115759Abstract: The present invention relates to the manufacture of conjugated linoleic acid, and in particular, to dietary supplements, feeds and food products containing conjugated linoleic acid. Accordingly, processes for producing conjugated linoleic acid of high purity and acid value are disclosed. These processes utilize alcoholate catalysts and esters of sunflower oil, safflower oil, or corn oil as the source of linoleic acid. The esters of conjugated linoleic acid produced by the process can be used in animal feeds and in food products suitable for human consumption. Furthermore, the esters can be converted into free fatty acids or incorporated into triglycerides.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2004Date of Patent: October 3, 2006Assignee: Natural ASAInventors: Asgeir Saebo, Per Christian Saebo

Patent number: 7094420Abstract: Compositions and methods of using conjugated linoleic acid preparations enriched for the t10,c12 and c9,t11 isomers are disclosed. It is found that preparations of conjugated linoleic acid containing a ratio of t10,c12 to c9,t11 of about greater than 1.2:1 are desirable for a wide variety of nutritional, therapeutic and pharmacologic uses.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2001Date of Patent: August 22, 2006Assignee: Natural ASAInventors: Asgeir Saebo, Carl Skarie, Daria Jerome

Patent number: 7078051Abstract: A novel method of delivering conjugated linoleic acid to an animal involves compounding feed or food for human consumption with a biologically active amount of conjugated linoleic acid alkyl ester (CLA-ester). The CLA-ester comprises a mixture of c9,t11-octadecanoic acid and t10,c12-octadecanoic acid, with contaminating isomers being present at an aggregate percentage of less than 5. Manufactured from sunflower or safflower oil, the CLA-esters contain less than 0.5 percent phosphatidyl residue, so that a food grade product is made without special purification and refining steps.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 1998Date of Patent: July 18, 2006Assignee: Natural AsaInventors: Asgeir Saebo, Carl Skarie
