Enzymatic transformations in supersaturated substrate solutions: I. A general study with glycosidases.

abstract：:For the commercial exploitation of lipase biocatalysis to be successful, it is essential that effective supports are selected for lipase immobilization. In this study hydrophobic controlled-pore glasses have been used as model systems for the immobilization of Rhizomucor miehei lipase. The effect of pore diameter and ...
