Lipase: A Review

Indigenous enzymes in milk: Overview and historical aspects—Part 1

“…Reflecting its importance in the biosynthesis of milk fat and its role in hydrolytic rancidity, mammary/milk lipase/ LPL have been the subject of several reviews, including those by Herrington (1954), Chandan and Shahani (1964), Shahani et al (1973), Brockerhoff and Jensen (1974), Jensen and Pitas (1976), Hamosh and Hamosh (1983), Olivecrona and Bengtsson-Olivecrona (1991), Olivecrona et al (1992Olivecrona et al ( , 2003, Deeth andFitz-Gerald (1995, 2006), Barber et al (1997) and Palmquist (2006).…”

“…However, based on the results of a new assay method, Rice and Markley (1922), in the same issue of the Journal of Dairy Science, presented strong evidence indicating the presence of lipase in milk. Herrington (1954) compiled an extensive review on milk lipase but concentrated on various aspects of lipolysis, rather than on the enzyme, which at that stage had not been isolated and had been characterised only in general terms.…”

“…The introduction of pipe-line milking machines in the 1950s led to serious problems with hydrolytic rancidity (see Herrington, 1954) and consequently to research to isolate and characterise milk lipase. Initially, there was much confusion on the number and type of lipases in milk.…”

Effects of Heat Treatment on the Nutritional Quality of Milk: V. The Effect of Heat Treatment on Milk Enzymes

“…우유의 효소는 alkaline phosphatase (Morton, 1985), lactoperoxidase (Polis와 Shmuckler, 1953) 등의 효소자체에 대한 연구, 단백질분해효소 (Warner와 Polis, 1945), 지방분해효소 (Herrington, 1954), xanthine oxidase (Ball, 1939)등의 우유의 품질에 관련된 연구, lactose synthase (Ebner와 Schanbacher, 1974)의 유성분 생합성에 관한 연구, catalase, arylesterase, glycosidase 등의 유방질병에 관련된 연구 (Kitchen, 1976(Kitchen, , 1981 (Kitchen, 1985;Phillips와 Griffiths, 1987), 살균후 저장 중의 품질변화 (Driessen, 1976;Mottar 등, 1979), 오염된 저온성 미생물량의 추정 (Griffiths 등, 1984;Kroll과 Rodrigues, 1986) 등이 관심의 대상이 되고 있다.…”

Fat utilization by the young pig

“…The hydrolysis of sow milk fat may be attributed to an enzyme present in the milk. Herrington (1954) reported that cow's milk contains a fatsplitting enzyme. A milk lipase has also been reported in human milk (Tarassuk et al, 1964) and guinea pig (McBride and Korn, 1963).…”
