Title: Collagen-Immobilized Lipases Show Good Activity and Reusability for Butyl Butyrate Synthesis. Author: Dewei S, Min C, Haiming C. Journal: Appl Biochem Biotechnol; 2016 Nov; 180(5):826-840. PubMed ID: 27188972. Abstract: Candida rugosa lipases were immobilized onto collagen fibers through glutaraldehyde cross-linking method. The immobilization process has been optimized. Under the optimal immobilization conditions, the activity of the collagen-immobilized lipase reached 340 U/g. The activity was recovered of 28.3 % by immobilization. The operational stability of the obtained collagen-immobilized lipase for hydrolysis of olive oil emulsion was determined. The collagen-immobilized lipase showed good tolerance to temperature and pH variations in comparison to free lipase. The collagen-immobilized lipase was also applied as biocatalyst for synthesis of butyl butyrate from butyric acid and 1-butanol in n-hexane. The conversion yield was 94 % at the optimal conditions. Of its initial activity, 64 % was retained after 5 cycles for synthesizing butyl butyrate in n-hexane.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
