METHOD FOR PRODUCING LIPID CONTAINING USEFUL FATTY ACID RESIDUE OF DOCOSAPENTAENOIC ACID, ARACHIDONIC ACID OR THE LIKE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a lipid containing any one kind or more of n-3 docosapentaenoic acid, arachidonic acid, icosapentaenoic acid and docosatetraenoic acid as a lipid constituting fatty acid from a specific mollusc, and to provide a method for recycling hitherto poorly used or unused molluscs such as conches, marine product processing waste materials or the like.;SOLUTION: A useful fatty acid-containing lipid including any one kind or more of docosapentaenoic acid, arachidonic acid, icosapentaenoic acid and docosatetraenoic acid as a lipid constituting fatty acid is produced by extracting a soft body part and/or egg of one or more of molluscs belonging to any of gastropods (Class Gastropoda), pelecypods (Class Bivalvia), Class Polyplacophora, and cephalopods (Class Cephalopoda), with an organic solvent, and fractionating lipid components by subjecting the extracted material to a chromatography treatment as occasion demands. The molluscs may be algae containing any one or more of the acids, and/or shellfishes bred by using plants containing linoleic acid or the like as baits.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT
