Enzymatic synthesis of coconut oil based wax esters by immobilized lipase EQ3 and commercial lipozyme RMIM

BACKGROUND: Liquid wax esters are widely used in cosmetic as well as pharmaceutical and other industries. The demand of organic and natural products is increasing nowadays. Coconut oil contains benefit fatty acids and has been mainly used for oil-based and moisturizer products. Liquid wax esters from coc...

Síntesis y regulación de compuestos del aroma y el sabor derivados de la levadura en la cerveza: ásteres

Rev. argent. microbiol; 50 (4), 2018
Las levaduras, durante el proceso de elaboración de cerveza, producen más de 500 compuestos químicos; estos pueden impactar tanto negativa como positivamente en las características organolépticas de la cerveza. En los últimos años, y en particular gracias al avance de la biología molecular y la g...

Hydrolytic efficiency and isomerization during de-esterification of natural astaxanthin esters by saponification and enzymolysis

Background: Astaxanthin from natural sources is typically esterified with fatty acids; hence, it must be hydrolyzed to remove esters before identification and quantification by conventional HPLC. Alkaline-catalyzed saponification and enzyme-catalyzed enzymolysis are the most commonly used de-esterificati...

Complete genome sequence of a phthalic acid esters degrading Mycobacterium sp. YC-RL4

Braz. j. microbiol; 48 (4), 2017
ABSTRACT Mycobacterium sp. YC-RL4 is capable of utilizing a broad range of phthalic acid esters (PAEs) as sole source of carbon and energy for growth. The preliminary studies demonstrated its high degrading efficiency and good performance during the bioprocess with environmental samples. Here, we present...
