Abstract
Kid goat pre-gastric esterase immobilized in a hollow fiber reactor wa s used to hydrolyse butteroil at buffer pH values of 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0. Overall hydrolysis proceeded fastest at pH 6.0, but changes in volati le fatty acid ratios with pH suggest that the same enzyme:substrate sy stem can produce different flavor profiles, e. g., at pH 6.0 the relat ive rate of production of undesirable soaplike flavors is minimized.
