Waste Cooking Oils as Feedstock for Lipase and Lipid-Rich Biomass Production
Approximately 1 million tons of waste cooking oils (WCO) are generated in European Union per year. Oftentimes, these oily wastes are discharged through public sewerage systems, increasing the water treatment costs in wastewater treatment plants.

Colorimetric Measurement of Triglycerides Cannot Provide an Accurate Measure of Stored Fat Content in Drosophila [PDF]
Drosophila melanogaster has recently emerged as a useful model system in which to study the genetic basis of regulation of fat storage. One of the most frequently used methods for evaluating the levels of stored fat (triglycerides) in flies is a coupled ...

CHARACTERIZATION OF IMMOBILIZED LIPASE IN ALUMINOSILICATE FOR LACTOSYL PALMITATE SYNTHESIS
Whey lactose can be esterified enzymatically by using immobilized lipase. The lipase can be isolated from Rhizopus oryzae, purified and immobilized in mesoporous aluminosilica. The use of immobilized lipase has advantages, there are longer shelf life and

Many different bacterial species produce lipases which hydrolyze esters of glycerol with preferably long-chain fatty acids. They act at the interface generated by a hydrophobic lipid substrate in a hydrophilic aqueous medium. A characteristic property of lipases is called interfacial activation, meaning a sharp increase in lipase activity observed when

Surfactant-activated lipase hybrid nanoflowers with enhanced enzymatic performance
Increasing numbers of materials have been extensively used as platforms for enzyme immobilization to improve catalytic performance. However, activity of the most of the enzymes was declined after immobilization.

Hydrophobic adsorption and covalent immobilization of Candida antarctica lipase B on mixed-function-grafted silica gel supports for continuous-flow biotransformations [PDF]
Adsorption onto solid supports has proven to be an easy and effective way to improve the mechanical and catalytic properties of lipases. Covalent binding of lipases onto the support surface enhances the active lifetime of the immobilized biocatalysts ...

Study the effect of F17S mutation on the chimeric Bacillus thermocatenulatus lipase
Lipases (triacylglycerol acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3) are one of the highest value commercial enzymes as they have potential applications in biotechnology for detergents, food, pharmaceuticals, leather, textiles, cosmetics, and paper industries; and are ...

Characterization of the extracellular lipase of Bacillus subtilis and its relationship to a membrane-bound lipase found in a mutant strain [PDF]
Bacillus subtilis CMK33 is a mutant that is more osmotically fragile than the wild type when it is converted to the protoplast form. The protoplasts of this mutant contain a membrane-bound lipase, which is not found in protoplasts of the wild type ...

3D Bioprinting of Thick Adipose Tissues with Integrated Vascular Hierarchies
An advanced 3D bioprinting technique is used here to create thick adipose tissues with a central, vessel and extensive branching. The construct is made using alginate, gelatin and collagen‐based bioinks. Flow through the complex vessel network is demonstrated as well as its successful integration with a femoral artery following implantation in a rat ...
