Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) that binds to docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) at the sn-2 position (β-DHA-LPC) was prepared by the Lipozyme mediated selective partial hydrolysis of DHA-enriched egg yolk lecithin. The β-DHA-LPC was found to be rapidly incorporated into erythrocyte cells and increase their deformability at 5μM/erythrocyte.
