Enzymatic biosynthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides
Biochemical Engineering Journal, 2005 Candida rugosa lipase has been shown to have sufficient activity to catalyse the enzymatic synthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides in a batch reactor. The water requirements of the reactor change during the reaction: at the beginning of the process a minimum amount of water is necessary but, later, the reaction mixture must be dried out to obtain an ...
