Immobilization of lipases from Rhizomucor miehei and Thermomyces lanuginosus by adsorption on variously grafted silica gels

Immobilization of Thermomyces lanuginosus Xylanase on Aluminum Hydroxide Particles Through Adsorption: Characterization of Immobilized Enzyme.

Xylanase plays important roles in a broad range of industrial production as a biocatalyst, and its applications commonly require immobilization on supports to enhance its stability. Aluminum hydroxide, a carrier material with high surface area, has the advantages of simple and low-cost preparation and resistance to biodegradation, and can be potentially used as a proper support for xylanase imm...

Immobilization of Rhizomucor miehei Lipase on High Density Polyethylene

 Immobilization of Lipase produced from Rhizomucor miehei on HDPE fine powder was investigated. As compared to an aqueous system, immobilization in a non-aquous organic medium such as n-hexane was not successful and caused enzyme denaturation. Prewetting the support with ethanol increased the immobilized protein and enzyme activity as much as 31% and 34%, respectively. The maximum immobilized a...

Synthesis of sugar esters in solvent mixtures by lipases from Thermomyces lanuginosus and Candida antarctica B, and their antimicrobial properties

Production of MLM-Type structured lipids from fish oil catalyzed by Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase

Background Lipases are powerful tools for the syntheses of structured lipids (SL) which are triacylglycerols (TAG) having particular fatty acid residues at specific positions. The production of TAG with medium chain fatty acids (MCFA), in positions sn-1 and sn-3, and a long-chain fatty acid (LCFA), in the internal position, has recently increased due to its nutritional interest in applications ...

Efficient Degumming of Rice Bran Oil by Immobilized PLA1 from Thermomyces lanuginosus.

Phospholipase A1 (PLA1) immobilized in calcium alginate can effectively overcome the mass transfer resistance at the lipid-water interface making more room for the enzyme to separate itself from the products of reaction and to bind with the next available molecule at the interface. The reaction of an immobilized PLA1 hydrolase from Thermomyces lanuginosus was comparatively faster than of its fr...
