METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF HYDROXY FATTY ACID FROM PALMITOLEIC ACID BY PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for preparing hydroxy fatty acid from palmitoleic acid using Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and more specifically, using a microorganism Pseudomonas aeruginosa PR3 using palmitoleic acid as a substrate, 7,10 is a kind of hydroxy fatty acid. -Dihydroxy-8 (E) -hexadecenoic acid (7,10-dihydroxy-8 (E) -hexadecenoic acid).;Hydroxy fatty acids having hydroxyl groups in the carbon chain of fatty acids are known to have new functionalities compared to general fatty acids and thus have great industrial utility. They can be used in paints, inks, cosmetics, surfactants, pesticides, medicines and the like. However, they exist only in trace amounts in plants, mainly in nature. Therefore, research is being made to produce hydroxy fatty acids from fatty acids using microorganisms. However, no attempt has yet been made to produce hydroxy fatty acids based on palmitoleic acid as a substrate. If palmitoleic acid can be used as a substrate to produce new hydroxy fatty acids, it will be very useful for the development of new materials and their industrial use.;Hydroxy Fatty Acid, Palmitoleic Acid, 7,10-Dihydroxy-8 (E) -hexadecenoic Acid, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PR3
