1. Determining the Reaction Mechanism of Hydrolysis of p-Nitrophenyl Butyrate Performed by a Cold-Adapted Lipase, BplA : Finding the Rate-Limiting Step
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och bioinformatikAbstract : Lipases are one of the most important biocatalysts for biotechnological applications. They have high importance since lipases have a catalytic activity that is related to their hydrolysis and synthesis reactions to high regioselectivity and enantioselectivity. They also have an activity over a wide range of temperature, pH, and diverse substrates. READ MORE

2. Comparative study of three Fe (III)-ion reducing bacteria gives insights into bioelectricity generation in the MFC technique
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology is a renewable energy source that employs microorganisms as biocatalysts to degrade substrates into electrons and protons, and then transfer the electrons to the anode electrode. Electron transfer rates by microorganisms depend on many factors as well as on their diverse electron transfer mechanisms. READ MORE

3. Towards the use of Alcohol dehydrogenases as biocatalysts for stereoselective isotope labeling of aromatic alcohols.
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kemi - BMCAbstract : The enzyme ADH-A and one of its mutants ADH-A C1B1 from Rhodococcus ruber, have in previous studies been proved to act as proper biocatalysts, fully capable of performing redox reactions. Two redox reactions were studied during this project, were those enzymes act as catalysts. READ MORE
