“…However, the inhibition behavior by 2-PE was observed since the increase in 2-PE concentration did not increase the initial rate at any given VAc concentration; the initial rate decreasing at higher concentrations of 2-PE could be attributed to the high affinity of 2-PE to lipase and slowly removing it from the active site. Recently, high concentrations of alcohol-inhibited lipase catalyzed esterification or transesterification were also reported [28,29].…”
