intermediate production of mono- and diolein by an immobilized lipase from candida antarctica

Intermediate Production of Mono- and Diolein by an Immobilized Lipase from Candida antarctica

Lipase from Candida antarctica, fixed on macroporous acrylic resin, has been used for the intermediate production of mono- and diolein by hydrolysis of triolein. The effect of altering concentrations of triolein and glycerol and the function of the molecular sieve on the hydrolysis reaction of triolein were investigated. The highest hydrolysis yield was observed for the utmost concentration of ...

Production of a biodiesel-like biofuel without glycerol generation, by using Novozym 435, an immobilized Candida antarctica lipase

Background: Novozym 435, a commercial lipase from Candida antarctica, recombinant, expressed in Aspergillus niger, immobilized on macroporous acrylic resin, has been already described in the obtention of biodiesel. It is here evaluated in the production of a new biofuel that integrates the glycerol as monoglyceride (MG) together with two fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE) molecules by the applicati...

Acetylation of vitamin E by Candida antarctica lipase B immobilized on different carriers

Stabilization of Candida antarctica Lipase B (CALB) Immobilized on Octyl Agarose by Treatment with Polyethyleneimine (PEI).

Lipase B from Candida antarctica (CALB) was immobilized on octyl agarose (OC) and physically modified with polyethyleneimine (PEI) in order to confer a strong ion exchange character to the enzyme and thus enable the immobilization of other enzymes on its surface. The enzyme activity was fully maintained during the coating and the thermal stability was marginally improved. The enzyme release fro...

Optimization of Biodiesel Production Using Immobilized Candida Rugosa Lipase on Magnetic Fe3O4-Silica Aerogel

Hydrophobic magnetic silica aerogel was used as a support to immobilize Candida rugosa lipase by adsorption method. Physical and chemical properties of the support and immobilized lipase were determined by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis and Fourier Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) spectroscopy and the results showed that the lipase was s...

Candida antarctica lipase B chemically immobilized on epoxy-activated micro- and nanobeads: catalysts for polyester synthesis.

Candida antarctica Lipase B (CALB) was covalently immobilized onto epoxy-activated macroporous poly(methyl methacrylate) Amberzyme beads (235 microm particle size, 220 A pore size) and nanoparticles (nanoPSG, diameter 68 nm) with a poly(glycidyl methacrylate) outer region. Amberzyme beads allowed CALB loading up to 0.16 g of enzyme per gram of support. IR microspectroscopy generated images of A...
