Lipase is produced by submerged fermentation of Aspergillus niger followed by purification and
formulation. The product has efficient
hydrolytic activity within a wide range of temperature (30℃-80℃) and neutral
to alkaline pH conditions. It catalyzes lipolysis, esterification and
transesterification reaction.
Lipase is a kind of serine
hydrolase which can catalyze hydrolysis of triglyceride to finally produce
Glycerol and fatty acids. The hydrolysis takes place on oil-water interface.
Lipase can also catalyze ester synthesis and interesterification.
