Description

Application

Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into glycerol and free fatty acids.

Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into glycerol and free fatty acids.

Other Notes

1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which hydrolyzes 1 μmol acetic acid per minute at pH 7.4 and 40 °C (triacetin, Cat. No. 90240 as substrate) 50 U as described above are equivalent to ~1 U using triolein, Cat. No. 62314 as substrate, at pH 8.0 and 40 °C

Selective acylation and deacylation of furanose and pyranose derivatives; Enantioselective hydrolysis of 2-methyl 3-acetoxy esters; Resolution of the diols of bicycloheptane and bicyclooctane by enzymic hydrolysis; Glyceride synthesis.
