Abstract:
This work focuses on the Lipase-catalyzed synthesis of esters and amides of great interest for the cosmetic sector, by employing enzymes Lipozyme® 435 and Novozym® 435, respectively. The esterification reactions yielded very high conversion of substrates in solvent-free systems within a short time interval. Regarding the synthesis of amides, Lauric and Oleic acid monoethanolamine (LMEA and OMEA) were successfully synthetized both with and without the use of organic solvents. The most promising results were obtained through the transacylation reactions in tert-butanol between the ethyl esters o

Primary fatty acid amides (PFAMs) and N-acylglycines (NAGs) are important signaling molecules in the mammalian nervous system, binding to many drug receptors and demonstrating control over sleep, locomotor activity, angiogenesis, vasodilatation, gap junction communication, and many other processes. Oleamide is the best-studied of the PFAMs, while the in vivo activity of the others is largely unstudied. Even less is known about the NAGs, as their discovery as novel compounds is much more recent due to low endogenous levels. Herein is described extraction and quantification techniques for PFAMs

Abstract:
The vast variety of long-chain fatty acid amides identified in biological systems is intriguing. The general structure of a fatty acid amide is R-CO-NH-X, where R is an alkyl group and X is derived from an immense variety of biogenic amines. Although structurally simple, the bioactivities of these molecules as signaling lipids are very diverse and have just recently begun to emerge in the literature. Interest in the long-chain fatty acid amides dramatically increased following the identification and characterization of one specific N-acylethanolamine, N-arachidonoylethanolamine (anandamide), a

Abstract:
A fatty acid amide is precisely as the name suggests: A fatty acid (CHn-COOH), in which the hydroxyl group of the carboxylic acid is displaced by an amine functional group from a biogenic amine (R-NH2), ultimately forming an amide bond. Furthermore, these fatty acid amides can be composed of a variety of different acyl chain lengths donated by the fatty acid and a myriad of different biogenic amines. Thus, these molecules can be subdivided in a number of different ways including the separation of short chain (acetyl to heptanoyl) and long chain (palmitoyl to arachidonoyl) and also based off t

Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) terminates the endocannabinoid signaling pathway that regulates numerous neurobehavioral processes in animals by hydrolyzing a class of lipid mediators, N-acylethanolamines (NAEs).

Abstract:
Four Holstein cows with ruminal and duodenal cannulas were used to evaluate the effects of dietary fatty acylamides (canolamide) or abomasally infused conjugated linoleic acid on milk production and composition. In the first experiment, cows were fed diets with no supplemental fat(control), or the control diet supplemented at 3.3% of DM with canola oil, canolamide, or a mixture of equal amounts of canola oil and canolamide in a 4 x 4 Latin square. DMI and milk yield were decreased when cows were fed canolamide. Intake and duodenal flow of diet components and fatty acids were decreased by can
