Journal ArticleDOI
Industrial applications of immobilized enzymes—A review
Alessandra Basso,Simona Serban +1 more
TL;DR: A series of large-scale applications of immobilized enzymes with benefits for the food, chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics and medical device industries, some of which have been scarcely reported on previously are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biocatalysis in non-conventional media—ionic liquids, supercritical fluids and the gas phase
TL;DR: The toxicology of ILs is still unclear and further studies are necessary to assess their sustainability as mentioned in this paper, however, the potential of IL solvents for high value added compounds, such as fragrances, remains unclear.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Silico Analysis of Enzyme Surface and Glycosylation Effect as a Tool for Efficient Covalent Immobilisation of CalB and PGA on Sepabeads
Alessandra Basso,Paolo Braiuca,Sara Cantone,Cynthia Ebert,Paoloo Linda,Patrizia Spizzo,Paolo Caimi,Ulf Hanefeld,Ulf Hanefeld,Giuliano Degrassi,Lucia Gardossi +10 more
TL;DR: A computational analysis of the structures of lipase B from Candida antarctica and two penicillin G acylases and PGA, from eukaryotic and prokaryotic sources, respectively, suggests the involvement of the glycan moiety in enzyme-polymer interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability and activity of immobilised penicillin G amidase in ionic liquids at controlled aw
TL;DR: PGA is highly stable in [bmim][PF6] and [BMim][BF4], and catalytic activity, assayed by studying the synthesis of the amide of L-phenylglycine methyl ester with methyl phenylacetate, in these ILS is comparable to that obtained in toluene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conformational Changes of Lipases in Aqueous Media: A Comparative Computational Study and Experimental Implications
Valerio Ferrario,Cynthia Ebert,Lorena Knapic,Diana Fattor,Alessandra Basso,Patrizia Spizzo,Lucia Gardossi +6 more
TL;DR: Preliminary experimental data here reported indicate that covalent immobilization of lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia performed in the presence of hydrophobic solvent allows one to achieve a more than 10-fold increase in immobilization yield as compared to similar protocols performed in simple aqueous buffer.
