Title: A model for enzymatic isomerization of D-glucose to D-fructose in a batch reactor. Author: Sproull RD, Lim HC, Schneider DR. Journal: Biotechnol Bioeng; 1976 May; 18(5):633-48. PubMed ID: 1276393. Abstract: Using whole cells containing glucose isomerase, mathematical models for the enzymatic conversion of D-glucose to D-fructose and for the inactivation of the enzyme catalyst have been postulated and verified experimentally. The heat of reaction, the equilibrium constant, and the individual rate constants and their activation energies have been estimated. The model can be used to predict the time course for the enzymatic production of fructose in a batch reactor within the tested experimental range of 40-80 degrees C.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
