Journal ArticleDOI
Some engineering aspects of solid-state fermentation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of these developments emphasizing important aspects such as mass and heat transfer, design, scale-up, monitoring and control of solid-state fermentations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymatic synthesis of isoamyl acetate using immobilized lipase from Rhizomucor miehei
TL;DR: The effects of important reaction parameters for enhancing isoamyl acetate formation through lipase-catalyzed esterification ofisoamyl alcohol were investigated and the operational stability of lipase was also observed to be reasonably high enabling ten reuses of the biocatalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipases and lipase-catalyzed esterification reactions in nonaqueous media
S. Hari Krishna,N. G. Karanth +1 more
TL;DR: This review covers important features of lipase and lipase-catalyzed esterification reactions including the kinetics and stability of lipases, and modeling aspects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipase-catalyzed synthesis of isoamyl butyrate. A kinetic study.
S. Hari Krishna,N. G. Karanth +1 more
TL;DR: This study indicates a competitive enzyme inhibition by butyric acid during lipase-catalyzed esterification reaction, which causes a pH drop in the enzyme microenvironment leading to enzyme inactivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of isoamyl acetate production by using immobilized lipase from Mucor miehei by response surface methodology.
TL;DR: A second order response function was developed based on Box-Behnken design of experiments, which indicated optimum conditions for maximum esterification and increased with both E/S ratio and time and decreased with alcohol (acid) concentration.
