Abstract
18
Polyglycerol ester is considered as a kind of excellent food emulsions. The current
19
study was to synthesize the polyglycerol fatty acid esters (PGFEs) with different
20
long-chain fatty acids, i. e. long carbon fatty acid polyglycerol esters (L-PGFEs),
21
medium carbon fatty acid polyglycerol esters (M-PGFEs) and short carbon fatty acid
22
polyglycerol esters (S-PGFEs), using Lipozyme 435 as a catalyst in a solvent-free
23
system. Thereafter, the physicochemical properties and the potential applications as a
24
food emulsifier of the newly synthesized PGFEs were investigated. The maximum
25
esterification efficiency of L-PGFEs, M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs were achieved to
26
69.37%, 67.34% and 71.68%, respectively, at the optimum conditions: reaction
27
temperature 84.48℃, reaction time 6 h, the molar ratio of polyglycerol to fatty acid
28
1.35:1, enzyme usage 1.41 wt% (based on the total substrate mass). High performance
29
liquid chromatography equipped with an evaporative light scattering detector
30
(HPLC-ELSD) and electrospray ionization mass spectrum (ESI-MS) were employed
31
to identify the synthesized products. Results demonstrated that the main components
32
of these PGFEs were dimeric glycerides (68.3%), triglycerides (13.13%), and a small
33
amount of tetraglycerides (3.18%). The properties of PGFEs were characterized by
34
physical and chemical methods. Compared to M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs, L-PGFEs had
35
the best physicochemical properties without any obvious odor. Further, the emulsion
36
capabilities of these different long-chain PGFEs were evaluated via examining the
37
particle size and storage stability compared to glycerin monostearate (GMS). Results
38
showed that the emulsions prepared by L-PGFEs had the best stability and the

smallest particle size (16.8 nm) compared to M-PGFEs, S-PGFEs and GMS, which
40
were not prone to coalescence of oil droplets and separation of oil and water. From the
41
current study, the newly synthesized PGFEs with long-chain fatty acids showed the
42
best advantages as a food emulsifier than M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs, even glycerin
43
monostearate.

Introduction
47
Polyglycerol fatty acid esters (PGFEs) as a new type of safe and effective non-ionic
48
surfactant have been extensively used in foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals due to
49
their excellent properties of emulsification, crystallization adjustment, viscosity
50
modifier and antimicrobials.1-4 It is known that the lipophilic PGFEs could promote
51
the formation of crystals5 while the hydrophilic PGFEs inhibited the formation of
52
crystallization in a diacylglycerol-rich oil.6 Meanwhile, PGFEs are considered as a
53
better substitute in emulsification performance than monoglyceride emulsifier on the
54
market. It was reported that the addition of 0.2% PGFEs to the production of
55
margarine was quite equivalent to the addition of 0.4% monoglyceride probably due
56
to the fact that the structure of PGFEs contained more hydrophilic hydroxyl groups
57
than monoglycerides.7-8
58
Currently, PGFEs can be synthesized either chemically or enzymatically. As we know,
59
it is random and easy for chemical methods to produce byproducts, which make it
60
difficult to separate and purify the PGFE products from the crude products. Also the
61
final products used as a food additive often have unpleasant organoleptic features.9
62
Recently, the green synthesis of PGFEs catalyzed by lipase has risen attentions around
63
of the world in view of that they are generally more specific, react under mild
64
conditions, and produce less side-products.10-11In a previous study, Wan FL et al.
65
exploited oligoglycerol with linoleic acid in a solvent-free system using Lipozyme
66
435 as the catalyst to synthesis oligoglycerol fatty acid esters (OGEs).12 Under the
67
optimum conditions (reaction time, 4.52 h, reaction temperature 90℃, enzyme dosage

68
2 wt%), the experimental efficiency of esterification (EE) reached 95.82±0.22%.
69
However, there are few reports on how the chain length of fatty acids affect the
70
hydrophilic lipophilic balance (HLB), thereby affecting the emulsifying properties of
71
the PGFEs.13
72
Natural fats and oils are attractive ingredients for the chemical industry as they are
73
renewable and more environmentally friendly compared with fossil resources. Rice
74
bran oil and Cinnamomum camphora seed oil are two such types of natural fats and
75
oils with specific chain lengths of fatty acids. The major fatty acids of rice bran oil
76
consist of palm acid (12% to 20%), oleic acid (40% to 50%), linoleic acid (29% to
77
42%),14 which is considered as a typical source oil of long-chain fatty acids. Our
78
previous studies showed that Cinnamomum camphora seeds contains about 40% of
79
the fat with up to 90% of capric acid and lauric acid.15However, such medium chain
80
fatty acids-enriched oil is very little utilized in China.16
81
Novozyme 435 (a commercially immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica) has a
82
relatively high catalytic activity in the esterification reaction and operational
83
stabilities. It presents activity under a large array of conditions and can be widely used
84
as a biocatalyst to catalyze esterification reactions.17-19
85
In the current study, rice bran oil, Cinnamomum camphora seed oil and acetic acid
86
were used as different long chain type sources of fatty acids to enzymatically
87
synthesize the long carbon fatty acid polyglycerol esters (L-PGFEs), medium carbon
88
fatty acid polyglycerol esters (M-PGFEs) and short carbon fatty acid polyglycerol
89
ester (S-PGFEs), respectively. The reaction conditions were optimized. Thereafter, the

90
physical and chemical properties of these PGFE products with different chainlength
91
fatty acids were compared.

Materials and methods
93
Materials
94
Glycerol was purchased from the West Long Chemical Co. (Shantou, China). Rice
95
bran oil was purchased from a local grocery store. Cinnamomum camphora seeds
96
were collected on campus of Nanchang University. Diglycerol (>98%) was purchased
97
from ANPEL. Laboratory Technologies Inc. (Shanghai, China). Double distilled water
98
(Milli-Q) was used to prepare all solutions and emulsions. All other chemicals used
99
were
of analytical grade
unless
otherwise
stated,
and
all solvents were
100
of HPLC grade.
101
Preparation and purification of polyglycerols
102
Glycerin (100.0 g) and sodium hydroxide (3.00 g, 3 wt% based on the glycerin) were
103
added to 250 mL of three-neck flask equipped with one condenser. The temperature of
104
the reaction was controlled by an oil bath (260℃). The stirring speed (300 rpm/min)
105
was controlled by a magnetic stirrer, and nitrogen was continuously used to exclude
106
the air in the reaction system. Then the condensate tube was to reflux glycerol, the
107
reaction process to maintain a stable temperature and stirring strength.20After reaction
108
the temperature cooled below 80℃ and the reaction product was removed. Thereafter,
109
a transparent light brown viscous liquid was collected and purified through the
110
molecular distillation (MD) equipment in the distillation temperature of 120℃,
111
vacuum pressure of 4.0 Pa, and scraping speed of 250 rpm/min.

112
The composition of polyglycerols was analyzed by high performance liquid
113
chromatography (HPLC) according to a modified method described by Crowther MW
114
et al.21After purification by MD, the purity of polyglycerol product was up to 86.33%,
115
including 68.37% diglycerol, 13.13% triglycerol and 3.18% teraglycerol(data not
116
shown).
117
Enzymatic synthesis of L-PGFEs, M-PGFEs and S-PGFEs in a solvent-free
118
system
119
Enzymatic esterification was completed in a solvent-free system. Lipozyme 435,
120
polyglycerols and rice bran oil, Cinnamomum camphora seed oil, or acetic acid were
121
added to a 150-mL air-tight flask and reacted at 300 rpm under nitrogen conditions to
122
prevent the oxidation of the reagents, respectively. The effects of reaction temperature
123
(40~100℃), reaction time (2~24 h), enzyme dosage (0.4~2.4 wt% of the total
124
substrate mass), and different molar ratio of polyglycerol to raw oil (2:1~1:2) on the
125
efficiency of esterification (EE) were studied.
126
After each reaction, 10 mL of reaction mixture was taken and centrifuged at 4200 rpm
127
for 10 min to be separated into three layers. The middle layer of the enzyme could be
128
isolated by filtration and used repeatedly and the lower layer of polyglycerol could be
129
used as raw material. The upper layer of a mixture of synthesized polyglycerol fatty
130
acid esters were determined according to the EE calculation as follows:12
131
EE(%) =
AV0 - AV ×100% AV0
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
132
Where AV0 is the acid value of rice bran oil/Cinnamomum camphora seed oil/acetic
133
acid, and AV is the acid value of the upper oil phase after the reaction. All
134
determinations were carried out in duplicate and the average values were reported.
135
Experiment Design for RSM Study
136
In this study, polyglycerol and rice bran oil were used as substrates. According to the
137
results of single factor test and factor analysis, a three-level three-factor Box-Behnken
138
design was adopted to optimize the reaction conditions. The factors studied were the
139
reaction temperature: (Te, ℃), enzyme dosage (Ed, wt%) and the molar ratio of
140
substrate (Sr, mol/mol). The response value was the efficiency of esterification (EE%).
141
The reaction time was fixed at 6 h for all experiments. All of the experiments were
142
carried out in triplicate and the average values were recorded. Design Expert software
143
(version 8.0, Stat-ease, Inc.) was used for the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and
144
regression analysis of the experimental data.
145
Composition of the PGFEs analyzed by HPLC-ELSD and ESI-MS
146
The chromatographic conditions were referred to the method of Wan F Let al.12 The
147
HPLC system was composed of a Agilent HPLC system equipped with a column of
148
Zorbax eclipse plus C18 (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) and evaporative light scattering
149
detector (ELSD). The ELSD was set at 70℃ with a carrier air flow rate of 1.7 L/min,
150
while column temperature was set at 30℃. The mixture of acetonitrile/isopropyl
151
alcohol (55/45, v/v) was delivered as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min.
152
The samples were dissolved in isopropyl alcohol with a concentration of 0.1 mg/mL.
153
About 1 mL of this sample solution was filtered through a nylon membrane filter

154
(0.22 µm), and transferred to a 2 mL sample vial, then analyzed by HPLC. The
155
injection volume of each simples was 10 µL. Each sample was analyzed in duplicate.
156
The MS spectrum was equipped with an ESI source. The operating parameters were
157
shown in the following conditions: ions spray voltage 5500 V, capillary voltage 40 V
158
and capillary temperature 250℃.22-24 Mass spectra within a mass range of 100~2000
159
m/z were acquired in the positive ion mode. The compositions of polyglycerols were
160
identified by measuring their m/z values.
161
Determination of physical and chemical properties of the PGFEs
162
The morphological and olfactory characteristics of the synthesized PGFEs were
163
investigated. The acid value (AV), saponification value (SV), iodine value (IV),
164
melting point (MP) of the PGFEs according to the National Standard of China. All
165
determinations were carried out in duplicate and the average values were reported.
166
Evaluation of emulsifying properties
167
Emulsions preparation
168
Rice bran oil and distilled water (mass ratio of 1: 9) were mixed together, then the
169
newly synthesized PGFE products and monoglyceride with different concentrations
170
(0.01 wt%, 0.05 wt%, 0.1 wt%, 0.3 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1 wt% of the total oil and water
171
mass) were added. The mixture was heated and stirred in a water bath at 50℃ for 30
172
minutes, and then a high speed homogenizer was used to produce the mixture to
173
emulsions.
174
Particle-size analysis of the emulsions
175
The particle-size of the emulsions was analyzed according to the method reported by
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
176
Li et al.,25 Briefly, a Malvern Mastersizer 2000 was used to determine the droplet size
177
of the emulsions using static multi-angle light scattering analysis in triplicate.
178
Emulsion stability test
179
Storage stability: the emulsions (10 mL) were decanted into glass test tubes and then
180
placed at room temperature. The final volume of emulsions at 1 min, 10 min, 30 min,
181
1 h,1 day,1 week was recorded, respectively.
182
Centrifugal stability: the emulsions (10 mL) were added in a centrifuge tube and then
183
centrifuged for 10 min at 4200 rpm/min. The final volume of emulsions in the
184
centrifuge tube was recorded.
185
Thermal processing: the emulsions (10 mL) were transferred into glass test tubes, and
186
incubated in water baths set at temperatures ranging from 30 to 80℃ for 30 min, and
187
then cooled to room temperature. The final volume of emulsions in the glass test tubes
188
was recorded.
189
The stability of each emulsion (ES) was determined as follows:
190
ES =
191
Where V0 was the initial volume, and V was the final volume.
192
Statistical analysis
193
All measurements were performed in duplicate and reported as means and standard
194
deviations. Analyses of variance were performed, and the mean values±standard
195
deviation were evaluated by Duncan’s multiple-range test, using SPSS version 13.0
196
statistical software (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). A p-value of Te>Sr.
235
The second-order model equation for the EE (Y, %) was as follows:
236
Y=66.07+3.68A-2.13B+9.85C-0.31AB+0.43AC-0.44BC-4.45A2-4.18B2-9.59C2
237
Where Y, the EE; A, the temperature; B, molar ratio of polyglycerol/rice bran acid;
238
and C, enzyme dosage.
239
Optimization of the reaction
240
The effect of the interaction between the reaction temperature, the molar ratio of the
241
substrate, and the enzyme dosage on the esterification rate is shown in Figure 2. The
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Page 12 of 38
Page 13 of 38
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
242
order of influence of the factors on the esterification rate is BC>AC>AB. The optimal
243
conditions for the synthesis of L-PGFEs by Lipozyme 435 were predicted by
244
Design-Expert software. When esterification was catalyzed by Lipozyme 435 under
245
the optimal conditions (temperature, 85℃; time, 6 h; enzyme dosage, 1.4 wt%; molar
246
ratio of polyglycerol/rice bran oil fatty acid, 1.35), the predicted EE based on the
247
model was 69.82%. The small deviation between the optimal conditions and those
248
local optimal ranged was possibly due to the interaction effects of various
249
experimental factors (Figure 2). To further verify the reliability of the regression
250
model, three independent experiments were performed at the predicted optimum
251
conditions, and the actual EE was 69.37±0.12%, proving the high accuracy of the
252
RSM model used. In addition, polyglycerol esters were synthesized by using
253
Cinnamomum camphora seed oil and acetic acid under the same conditions, and
254
finally polyglycerol ester products with average esterification rate of 67.34% and
255
71.68% were obtained, respectively.
256
Composition of the PGFEs product determined by HPLC-ELSD and ESI-MS
257
The newly synthesized PGFE products were determined by HPLC-ELSD (Figure 3).
258
The retention time in the reversed-phase HPLC mode increased as longer fatty acid
259
chains were attached to polyglycerol.27 The HPLC analysis showed that the PGFE
260
products could be divided into the following three groups of peaks, i.e. polyglycerol
261
mono-esters, di-esters and tri-esters, which meant that the major components of
262
L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs were mono-esters and di-esters with a small amount of
263
triglycerides. While the products of S-PGFEs contained the main components of
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
264
mono-esters with a small amount of di-esters.28
265
To further identify the PGFE products, the HPLC-ESI-MS in a positive ion mode was
266
employed to analyze the products. As shown in Table 3, the composition of L-PGFEs
267
was mainly dimeric glycerides and triglycerides such as [oleic acid+ dimeric glycerol
268
mono Ester + Na] + and [linoleic acid + triglyceride monoester + Na] + etc. M-PGFE
269
product was similar to L-PGFE product. Also, the polyglycerol ester product also
270
detected the formation of water adducts, such as [capric acid + tetraglycerol
271
monoester + Na + 4H2O], which might be due to the presence of hydroxyl groups and
272
water molecules to form hydrogen bonds.29 However, S-PGFEs were mostly
273
polyglycerol and monoesters. From the results, it could be concluded that the
274
esterification reaction product of enzymatic synthesis of polyglycerol ester was
275
mainly monoester and di-ester, and only some esterification reaction occurred due to
276
the steric hindrance effects.30
277
Characterization of the PGFEs
278
The physicochemical properties of the PGFE products were observed. As shown in
279
Table 4, PGFEs are both light yellow and transparent, while L-PGFEs are waxy solid,
280
M-PGFEs are semi-solid, and S-PGFEs show jelly Shaped semi-solid, compared with
281
the mono-glyceride as a white powder solid.
282
Determination of particle size of PGFE emulsions
283
In the current study, these PGFE products were further tested for the capability of
284
emulsification in order to exam whether PGFEs can be as an emulsifier applied in the
285
food industry. The particle size and distribution of the same concentration of PGFE
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Page 14 of 38
Page 15 of 38
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
286
emulsions were prepared. As shown in Figure 4, the average particle size of the
287
L-PGFE emulsions and the M-PGFE emulsions decreased greatly to 16.8 nm and 28.7
288
nm, respectively when the dosage was at 0.3%. While particle size of the emulsions
289
prepared by S-PGFEs and GMS did not change significantly with the increase of the
290
dosage of emulsifiers, which particle sizes fluctuated at 2000 nm and 450 nm,
291
respectively. The results showed that the S-PGFE emulsions could not form the
292
interfacial film on the surface of the dispersed droplet. It should be mentioned that the
293
GMS emulsions showed poor performance in the oil-in-water emulsions at the
294
oil-to-water ratio of 1: 9, probably due to their little lipophilic contribution. In
295
addition, the emulsions prepared by L-PGFEs had a smaller particle size than the
296
other emulsions prepared at the same dosage. This might be due to the fact that the
297
HLB value of L-PGFE emulsions was larger than that of M-PGFE emulsions (data
298
not shown) due to the difference in the fatty acids of the synthetic ester and more
299
lipophilic contribution, therefore formed more stable oil-in-water emulsions. The
300
emulsion droplets in the system were not easy to aggregate and form small particle.
301
Analysis of emulsion stability
302
The storage stability of the four kinds of emulsions with different dosage of emulsifier
303
were shown in Figure 5. The storage stabilities of the emulsions with L-PGFEs and
304
M-PGFEs could be significantly improved with the increase of PGFEs concentrations.
305
When the dosage was less than 0.1%, only a small amount of stratification was
306
observed after standing for 10 min, and the storage stability of the emulsions
307
decreased but not significant. After 1 hour, the emulsions reached a steady stage,
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
308
probably due to the amount of emulsifier too small to completely reduce the surface
309
tension of the emulsion droplets in the oil droplets re-coalescence. When the dosage
310
was more than 0.1%, the emulsions stood for 1 week without any separation,
311
indicating that the emulsifiers were enough to reduce the surface tension of the
312
emulsions.31 It can be concluded that when the mass ratio of rice bran oil to distilled
313
water was 1: 9, the excellent stability of emulsions could be produced with adding the
314
minimum dosage of L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs (0.1%). In addition, it can be observed
315
that the stability of emulsions with L-PGFE was slightly better than that of emulsions
316
with M-PGFE at the same dosages. On the other hand, the stability of emulsions with
317
S-PGFE and GMS were not stable, and the separation of oil-water two phases
318
occurred within 1 min after the preparation of the emulsions. The disability of GMS
319
emulsions was much more obvious. These were consistent with the results of the
320
above formula of emulsion particles, and these two kinds of emulsifiers are poor to
321
prepare emulsions.
322
The stabilities of four kinds of emulsions with different concentrations of PGFEs
323
could be easily observed in Figure 6 storing for 1 week at room temperature. The
324
stability of the emulsions was as follows: L-PGFE emulsions> M-PGFE emulsions>
325
S-PGFE emulsions> GMS emulsions. Meanwhile, the centrifugal and thermal
326
stabilities of emulsions with PGFEs and GMS at different dosages are shown in
327
Figure 7. The centrifugal stabilities of the emulsions prepared by these PGFEs
328
increased with increasing the dosage of emulsifier. When the dosage of emulsifiers
329
was less than 0.1%, the emulsions were separated to some extent. When the emulsifier
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Page 16 of 38
Page 17 of 38
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
330
dosage increased gradually, the emulsions prepared by L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs did
331
not show significant oil-water separation after centrifugation, probably due to that the
332
emulsions could overcome the centrifugal force when the amount of emulsifier was
333
sufficient. When the dosage of emulsifier added to 1%, the centrifugal stabilities of
334
emulsions with S-PGFEs and GMS were far less than those of L-PGFE and M-PGFE
335
emulsions, respectively. The similar trends were also found in the thermal stabilities
336
of these emulsions (Figure 7B). Under the same conditions, the emulsions prepared by
337
L-PGFEs and M-PGFEs showed excellent thermal stability with no any oil-water
338
separation until 90℃, while the emulsions prepared by S-PGFE showed more obvious
339
separation after 70℃. The stability of the emulsions prepared by GMS was the worst,
340
and the oil and water were completely separated at 80℃.
341
Conclusively, in the current study, enzymatic synthesis of polyglycerol fatty acid
342
esters (PGFEs) with different long-chain fatty acids was studied in a solvent-free
343
reaction system. The highest EEs of L-PGFEs (69.37%), M-PGFEs (67.34%) and
344
S-PGFEs (71.68%) were achieved, respectively, under the optimal reaction conditions:
345
85℃, 6 h, enzyme dosage of 1.4 wt%, the molar ratio of polyglycerol/oilsof 1.35:1.
346
The PGFEs compositions were further identified as main three PGFEs, di-meric
347
glycerides (68.3%), tri-glycerides (13.13%), and a small amount of tetra-glycerides
348
(3.18%). Among these PGFEs, L-PGFEs showed the best physical and chemical
349
properties with no obvious odors. Meanwhile, L-PGFEs showed the best performance
350
in the preparation of oil-water emulsions whether in storage stability, centrifugal
351
stability and thermal stability, compared with M-PGFEs, S-PGFEs as well as GMS.
