Abstract

This study aimed to produce, characterize and evaluate the antimicrobial properties of interesterified Amazonian oils produced by different lipases. Two blends of Amazonian oils were subjected to enzymatic interesterification: the first one was composed by buriti oil and murumuru fat and the second one was composed by patauá oil and palm stearin.
