(S)-Mandelate dehydrogenase (MDH) from Pseudomonas putida is a flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-dependent enzyme that oxidizes (S)-mandelate to benzoylformate. In this work, we show that the ethyl and methyl esters of (S)-mandelic acid are substrates for MDH. Although the binding affinity of

Candida cyclindracea lipase (CCL) was added to "sodium dodecyl sulfonate (AS)/n-butanol/n-octane/n-octane" water-in-oil microemulsion to catalyze the hydrolysis of ethyl mandelate and the esterification of alpha-bromopropionic acid with n-butanol, respectively. The catalytic activity of CCL in the above microemulsions was higher
