GONZALEZ-BACERIO, Jorge; MORENO-MEDINA, Víctor Ricardo  y  DEL MONTE MARTINEZ, Alberto. Lipases: enzymes having the potential for developing immobilised biocatalysts by interfacial adsorption. Rev. colomb. biotecnol [online]. 2010, vol.12, n.1, pp.113-140. ISSN 0123-3475.

Lipases are enzymes having very interesting functional properties thereby enabling their practical use in different fields related to agro-chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries, as well as in fine chemistry. The most relevant applications for these molecules would be racemic mixture resolution, obtaining optically-pure compounds and the bioconversion of active principles. This work presents a broad review of the topic, ranging from lipases’ structural and functional features to these enzymes’ immobilisation by interfacial adsorption and their use in biotechnology

Palabras clave : Bioconversion; esterases; interfacial activation; interfacial adsorption.
