Lipase Stability in Structured Lipid Synthesis: The Interplay of Substrate Characteristics and Strategies to Improve Its Operational Performance-A Critical Review. [PDF]

J Food Sci
ABSTRACT Structured lipids (SLs) have attracted growing industrial interest due to their associated health benefits. Lipases, as highly selective and versatile biocatalysts, are central to the sustainable synthesis of SLs attributed to their ability to operate under mild reaction conditions. However, the limited operational stability of lipases remains
