  1. 1. Evaluation of the stability of immobilized lipases from Rhizomucor miehei and Rhizopus oryzae in high oleic sunflower oil

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Author : Jinxu Xu; [2021]
    Keywords : lipase; immobilization; oxidation; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Lipase is one of the most useful enzymes in food industry, which can catalyze the hydrolysis and the synthesis of esters. However, the high cost due to the poor operation stability of lipase hinders the wide use of it. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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 bioinformatik

    Author : Linn Svalberg; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : 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

  3. 3. Development of a Water Activity Control and Reaction Monitoring System for Acidolysis and Transesterification Reactions using Immobilized Lipases in a Rotating Bed Reactor

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Author : Eimantas Gladkauskas; [2019]
    Keywords : Enzyme; Enzymes; Immobilized enzyme; bioreactor; rotating bed reactor; acidolysis; transesterification; arduino; water activity; thermodynamic water activity; Enzyme activity; automatic reaction tracking; reaction tracking; biotechnology; electrical engineering; relative humidity; spinchem; enzymatic synthesis; water activity control; process automation; lipases; lipase; bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Controlled water activity in an enzymatic reaction can influence enzyme activity and productivity. A small layer of water around an enzyme gives it a required flexibility to catalyze reactions at a higher rate in contrast with the one that is dry (Adlercreutz, Dicko, Larsson, & Månsson, 2017).

  4. 4. Lipase activity in Swedish raw milk

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Julia Hartmann; [2018]
    Keywords : food technology; livsmedelsteknologi; raw milk; lipase activity; Technology and Engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : Bovine milk contains several enzymes which can affect the quality of milk. One of these enzymes are lipases which hydrolyse the triacylglycerides in milk. In this process off-flavours, odour and product defects are generated. READ MORE

  5. 5. Calculating Ligand-Protein Binding Energies from Molecular Dynamics Simulations

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

    Author : Anders Hermansson; [2015]
    Keywords : Molecular Dynamics; Linear Interaction Energy; Enzyme Design; Lipase; Binding Energy;

    Abstract : Indications that existing parameter sets of extended Linear Interaction Energy (LIE) models are transferable between lipases from Rhizomucor Miehei and Thermomyces Lanigunosus in complex with a small set of vinyl esters are demonstrated. By calculat- ing energy terms that represents the cost of forming cavities filled by the ligand and the complex we can add them to a LIE model with en established parameter set. READ MORE
