P. Padmini et al., LIPASE-CATALYZED HYDROLYSIS OF RICEBRAN OIL BY FREE AND IMMOBILIZED ENZYME-SYSTEM IN BATCH STIRRED REACTOR, Bioprocess engineering, 9(2-3), 1993, pp. 103-106
A change of the reaction rate was observed for the lipase-catalysed hy
drolysis of ricebran oil in a batch stirred tank reactor using immobil
ized lipase enzyme as compared to free enzyme. The reactor rate was ob
served to be controlled mainly by factors like temperature, pH, initia
l enzyme concentration, initial substrate concentration and initial pr
oducts concentration.
