What is Glyceryl Monooleate?
Chemical properties
White Waxy Solid
The Uses of Glyceryl Monooleate
Glyceryl Monooleate is a flavoring agent that is prepared by esterification of commercial oleic acid that is derived either from edible sources or from tall oil fatty acids. It contains and glyceryl esters of fatty acids present in commercial oleic acid. The ingredient is also used as an adjuvant and as a solvent and vehicle.
The Uses of Glyceryl Monooleate
Monoglycerides fatty acid esters 93% 1-Oleoyl, 7% 2-oleoyl.
The Uses of Glyceryl Monooleate
glyceryl oleate is an emollient and stabilizer derived from olive oil. It is a water-in-oil emulsifier that allows for softer emulsions than glyceryl stearate.
What are the applications of Application
1-O-Oleyl-rac-glycerol is a surfactant, releases free glycerol and oleic acid upon hydrolysis
Definition
ChEBI: A 1-monoglyceride where the acyl group is oleoyl.
Preparation
Glyceryl Monooleate is produced by esterification of Glycerin with Oleic acid in presence of a suitable catalyst.
General Description
1-Oleoyl-rac-glycerol is commonly known as monoolein (MO). It is an amphiphilic molecule that is made up of a glycerol backbone and a hydrocarbon chain.
Biochem/physiol Actions
1-Oleoyl-rac-glycerol shows both inhibition and anti-inhibition action on the lipoprotein lipase mediated triglyceride hydrolysis.
