Immobilization of lipase on poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) hydrogel for the synthesis of butyl oleate

Lipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized by entrapment on poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) [poly(VP-co-HEMA)] hydrogel, cross-linked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA). The immobilized enzyme was used in the esterification of oleic acid with butanol in hexane. The...
