Medium Chain Triglycerides
Details
Fatty acids are divided into short chain, medium chain and long chain according to the length of carbon chain. Fatty acids containing 8-12 carbon atoms are generally called medium chain fatty acid (MCFA), which is esterified by glycerol to produce triglycerides (or MCT). Typical MCT refers to triglycerides of saturated octanoic acid or triglycerides of saturated capric acid or mixed triglycerides of saturated octanoic acid and decanoic acid. Medium-chain triglycerides are only composed of saturated fatty acids with low freezing point, liquid at room temperature and low viscosity. Compared with soybean oil, it is completely odorless and colorless transparent liquid. Compared with common oils and hydrogenated oils, the content of medium chain triglyceride unsaturated fatty acids is very low, and the oxidation stability is very good. Its iodine value is not more than 0.5. MCT is particularly stable at high temperature and low temperature.

Application

1.Food Additive Industry

Medium chain triglyceride can be used as a solvent and carrier for food flavors and pigments. In baking food processing, medium chain triglycerides are often used in combination with cheap vegetable oils as a tackifier to prevent baked foods from sticking to the pan or mold; pure medium triglycerides or mixed oil of plant oil are also used as lubricants and release agents for sausage mold pressing; medium chain triglycerides can also be used. Treating various fat-soluble vitamins, pigments and antioxidants, when a small amount of medium-chain triglycerides is added, the viscosity of high-viscosity fatty substances will be greatly reduced; in food processing industry, medium-chain triglycerides are also used to replace oxidizable butter to make milk sweeteners and cheese imitations; if combined with water-soluble colloids, medium-chain triglycerides can also be used as the turbidity of beverages. Agent. In addition, medium chain triglycerides can be used as lubricants for food processing machinery instead of mineral oils.

2.Patient food

Medium chain triglyceride (MCT) is usually used as a special food for patients with post-operation, infection and skin burns. It can also be used for those with poor fat absorption, AIDS, cancer and diabetes. It can be used for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, cholelithiasis, cholesterol reduction, prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia, etc. In addition, it can also help to lose weight. Practice has proved that MCT has obvious effects on body weight, abdominal fat area and waist circumference.

3.Feed additive

Medium chain triglyceride (MCT) is widely used in poultry and livestock breeding because of its high energy and easy absorption. Medium-chain triglycerides were added to the feed, which increased the weight of piglets, stabilized the milk of sows and improved the laying of hens. In addition, medium-chain triglycerides can also improve the disease resistance of poultry and livestock
