Abstract:In the present work, Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) was immobilized by physical adsorption in organic medium on Accurel MP 1000 (AMP) with a protein load of 6.5 mg g-1 (mg protein/g support). CRL-AMP was applied with 5 and 10% of catalyst/volume of medium (m v-1) in esterification reactions of stearic acid with lauryl and cetyl alcohols producing the wax esters such as dodecanoyl octadecanoate 1 and hexadecanoyl octadecanoate 2 in a heptane medium. Six reaction cycles were studied to evaluate the stability and re… Show more
