TLDR
Candida rugosa lipase was immobilized by covalent binding on controlled poresilica (CPS) using glutaraldehyde ascross-linking agent under aqueous and nonaqueous conditions and revealed good potential for recycling under ahydrous (olive-oil hydrolysis) andNonaqueous (butyl butyrate synthesis) conditions.
Abstract
Candida rugosa lipase was immobilized by covalent binding on controlled pore silica (CPS) using glutaraldehyde as cross-linking agent under aqueous and nonaqueous conditions. The immobilized C. rugosa was more active when the coupling procedure was performed in the presence of a nonpolar solvent, hexane. Similar optima pH (7.5–8.0) was found for both free and immobilized lipase. The optimum temperature for the immobilized lipase was about 10°C higher than that for the free lipase. The thermal stability of the CPS lipase was also greater than the original lipase preparation. Studies on the operational stability of CPS lipase revealed good potential for recycling under aqueous (olive-oil hydrolysis) and nonaqueous (butyl butyrate synthesis) conditions.

Preparation of a biocatalyst via physical adsorption of lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus on hydrophobic support to catalyze biolubricant synthesis by esterification reaction in a solvent-free system

TL;DR: Under optimal experimental conditions, reusability tests of the biocatalyst (TLL-PMA) after thirty successive cycles of reaction were performed and the nature of the product (isoamyl oleate) was confirmed by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), proton ((1)H NMR) and carbon ((13)C N MR) nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analyses.

Enzymatic catalysis in nonaqueous solvents.

TL;DR: The rate enhancements afforded by chymotrypsin and subtilisin in the transesterification reaction in octane are of the order of 100 billion-fold; covalent modification of the active center of the enzymes by a site-specific reagent renders them catalytically inactive in organic solvents.
