Lipase, ≥30,000 u/g, 100 g

Product Description

Lipases are hydrolytic enzymes which break down triacylglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerols.

Application Notes

Lipase from C. rugosa is used to catalyze the synthesis of flavor esters such as pentyl propanoate and butyl butanoate used in food enhancement.

Lipase from Candida rugosa has been used in a study to assess the influence of phase segregation on enzyme hydrolytic activity.

Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiese.
