C. Hatanaka et al., IMMOBILIZATION OF LIPASE BY PLASMA-INITIA TED POLYMERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF ITS ACTIVITY, Kagaku kogaku ronbunshu, 19(3), 1993, pp. 533-535
Lipase was immobilized in highly crosslinked polyacrylamide gel by pla
sma-initiated polymerization of acrylamide and N, N'-methylenebis-acry
lamide. The main product in the ester synthesis of glycerin and oleic
acid by this immobilized enzyme was monoglyceride, making it clear tha
t this enzyme had high selectivity to the esterification reaction syst
em. The conversion of the esterification was improved by control of wa
ter content in gels.
