This product is a liquid lipase product with high catalytic activity in the ester exchange reaction of glycerides and the esterification reaction of free fatty acids (FFA). This product can be used for biodiesel applications, converting glycerides and FFA into biodiesel, and producing fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) in the presence of methanol. The enzyme can exert activity at 40 ° C, reducing the energy required for the cooling process.
triacylglycerol + H₂O = diacylglycerol + a carboxylate. The enzyme is found in diverse organisms including animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria. It hydrolyses triglycerides into diglycerides and subsequently into monoglycerides and free fatty acids. The enzyme is highly soluble in water and acts at the surface of oil droplets. Access to the active site is controlled by the opening of a lid, which, when closed, hides the hydrophobic surface that surrounds the active site. The lid opens when the enzyme contacts an oil-water interface (interfacial activation). The pancreatic enzyme requires a protein cofactor, namely colipase, to counteract the inhibitory effects of bile salts.
