Microbial lipases are important enzymes in food and pharmaceutical industries. In this work, a Candida viswanathii lipase was purified by hydrophobic interaction chromatography on octyl Sepharose. The purification presented ...

Cold-active enzymes constitute an attractive resource for biotechnological applications. Their high catalytic activity at temperatures below 25 degrees C makes them excellent biocatalysts that eliminate the need of heating ...

Marine microorganisms are considered as a great source of biodiversity. The demand of marine enzymes is extensively and increasingly used in research and in various industries due to their diversity to survive under extreme ...

Biocatalysis in non-aqueous media has undergone tremendous development during the last decade, and numerous reactions have been introduced and optimized for synthetic applications. In contrast to aqueous enzymology, ...

Keratinases are proteolytic enzymes with a particular ability to cleave peptide bonds in keratin, and in other proteins. Due to their broad-spectrum of activity, keratinases are considered viable substitutes for chemical ...

In this study, an eco-friendly film (cassava starch, polyvinyl alcohol and sericin blend-AM-PVA-SS) was synthesized, characterized and applied as a novel support for Botryosphaeria ribisEC-01 lipase immobilization ...
