Lipases are the industrially important biocatalysts, which are envisioned to have tremendous
applications in the manufacture of a wide range of products. Their unique properties such as …

Esters are a highly relevant class of compounds in the industrial context, and biocatalysis
applied to ester syntheses is already a reality for some chemical companies. Their …

Immobilization of enzymes may produce alterations in their observed activity, specificity or
selectivity. Although in many cases an impoverishment of the enzyme properties is observed …

Different methods of preparing lipases for use in organic media are critically reviewed. Solid
lipase preparations can be made by typical immobilisation methods such as adsorption …

Non-edible feedstocks such as animal fat wastes (AFWs) have recently increased in
popularity as alternatives to vegetable oils in the production of biodiesel. They are low cost …

Different lipases have been immobilized on octyl agarose beads at 1 mg/g and at maximum
loading, via physical interfacial activation versus the octyl layer on the support. The stability …

The immobilization of proteins (mostly typically enzymes) onto solid supports is mature
technology and has been used successfully to enhance biocatalytic processes in a wide …

Lipases A and B from Candida antarctica (CALA, CALB), and those from Candida rugosa
(CRL) and Rhizomucor miehei (RML) have been immobilized on octyl agarose beads under …
