چکیده

In the present work, the ester synthesis in organic media catalyzed by lipases immobilized on chrysotile was studied. Lipases of different sources (Mucor javanicus, Pseudomonas cepacia, Rhizopus oryzae, Aspergillus niger and Candida rugosa) were immobilized on chrysotile, an inexpensive magnesium silicate, and used for esterification of hexanoic, octanoic and lauric acid with methanol, ethanol, 1-butanol and 1-octanol at 25 C in hexane as solvent. The best results were obtained with Mucor javanicus lipase and lauric acid giving yields of 62-97% of ester.

Immobilization of lipase from Candida rugosa on synthetic polymer beads for use in the synthesis of fatty esters ABSTRACT Lipase from Candida rugosa

Lipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized on three different supports, i.e. Amberlite XAD7, poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) and celite. With the conditions tested, maximum adsorption can be achieved after 30 min. The activities of the immobilized lipases were determined by the esterification reaction of oleic acid and butanol. The immobilized lipases were found to be very effective in the este...
