Immobilized lipases were prepared by physical adsorption using lipase AK, AY, AH, PS and R on Amberlite$^{(R)}$XAD$^{(R)}$7 HP resin. With the immobilized lipases (10%), structured lipid was synthesized by enzymatic interesterification of canola oil, palmitic ethyl ester, and stearic ethyl ester in order to study the reaction characteristics. Among the lipase, the highest protein content was obtained from lipase AH (11.41%) before immobilization, while the highest levels of bound protein was observed from immobilized lipase AK (63.91%). Immobilized lipase AK had the highest interesterification activity (38.3% of total saturated fatty acid). Lipase AK was also used for a continuous reaction in which the slow flow of reactant resulted in increased reaction rate. Reusability of immobilized AK, AH and PS increased at the second reaction (120-196.5%). However, the activity of immobilized AK, which had the highest bound protein content (63.91%) decreased after the third reaction, while the activity of immobilized AH and PS was maintained until the sixth reaction.

We designed and synthesized new benzylpiperidinyl ether derivatives as beta-amyloid aggregation inhibitors for the development of novel anti-Alzheimer's disease agents. As starting material, 4-hydroxypiperidine was used. For protection of the amine group in piperidine (2), di-tert-butyl dicarbonate was reacted with 4-hydroxypiperidine in the presence of triethylamine. For introduction of benzyl group, benzylbromide was treated with compound 2 in dioxane. After deprotection of Boc group on amine in compound 3, ester (5) was synthesized by addition of ethyl-4-chlorobutyrate. The alcohol 6 was synthesized by hydride reduction of 5 using $LiAlH_4$. To obtain final products (7-14), the alcohol 6 was condensed with each of substituted benzoic acids. To screen beta-amyloid aggregation inhibition of the products, thioflavinT assay was performed using $A{\beta}1-42\;at\;37^{\circ}C$ for 26 h incubation, in vitro. From the result of screening, compound 8, 9, 11 and 12 showed effective activity about $65{\sim}85\;{\mu}M\;as\;IC_{50}$ value. Among the prepared compounds, 4-[4-(benzyloxy)piperidino]butyl-4-chlorobenzoate (8) was the most effective inhibitor having $IC_{50}\;of\;65.4{\mu}M$.

This study estimates the classification criteria which distinguishes the types of omega-3 health functional foods, fish oils and fish oil usages through $^{13}C$-NMR spectra and fatty acids contents analysis. The major fatty acids of omega-3, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, $C_{20:5}$) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, $C_{22:6}$) are being analyzed. 10 ethyl ester (EE) forms and 10 triglyceride (TG) forms are the most common types of fish oils for 20 omega-3 products. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis generally shows the matching EPA and DHA contents of the products listed on the notation. But EE form contents of EPA and DHA are higher and are more varied than the TG form. Most of the samples of EPA/DHA ratio show different content ratios of indicated on the products when comparing with standards. The $^{13}C$-NMR analysis of EPA and DHA on sn-1,3 and sn-2 carbonyl peak position with fish oil triglycerides display whether the reconstituted triglycerides (rTG) are being confirmed or not. As a result of the 9 TG form, the 10 TG products showed similar values: EPA sn-1, 3; 13.46~15.66, sn-2; 3.00~4.52, DHA sn-1, 3; 2.43~4.40, sn-2; 3.84~6.36. But one product showed lower contents (EPA: sn-1, 3; 5.88, sn-2; 2.86, DHA sn-1, 3; 2.29, sn-2; 5.95) of EPA, thus it can be considered a different type of oil and only matched six products according to the label. This study is intended to provide basic materials which identify the status for the types and quality of omega-3 fish oil products according to fatty acids profiles and the $^{13}C$-NMR spectrum confirmed the location specificity of EPA and DHA.
