The compound is commonly used for the synthesis of biodiesel and biopolymers, as well as in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and flavor compounds.
Actions biochimiques/physiologiques
Esterase acts on water-soluble carboxyl esters containing short chain fatty acids .
The esterase catalyzes the transesterification of 1-phenylethanol.
Définition de l'unité
1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which releases 1 μmol 4-nitrophenol per minute at pH 7.0 and 65°C (4-nitrophenyl-n-octanoate as substrate)
Drug metabolism and disposition: the biological fate of chemicals, 41(2), 326-331 (2012-12-12)
Studies on therapeutic drug disposition in humans have shown significant alterations as the result of pregnancy. However, it is not known whether pesticide metabolic capacity changes throughout pregnancy, which could affect exposure of the developing brain. We sought to determine
Environmental science and pollution research international, 20(5), 3480-3488 (2012-12-06)
The common sole, Solea solea (Linneus, 1758), and the Senegalese sole, Solea senegalensis (Kaup, 1858), are two important commercial species that coexist in the NW Mediterranean. In order to assess the species' ability to respond to chemical insults, a comparison
Pharmacogenetics and genomics, 23(1), 1-8 (2012-11-01)
Carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) is the primary enzyme responsible for converting clopidogrel into biologically inactive carboxylic acid metabolites. We genotyped a functional variant in CES1, G143E, in participants of the Pharmacogenomics of Anti-Platelet Intervention (PAPI) study (n=566) and in 350 patients
Journal of hazardous materials, 244-245, 563-569 (2012-12-19)
Aiming the prediction of ionic liquids' (ILs) human toxicity, an automated carboxylesterase activity assay was developed. The method was implemented on a sequential injection analysis (SIA) system and relied on the hydrolysis of 4-methylumbelliferyl acetate by the enzyme, to produce
