First evaluation of the Brazilian microorganisms biocatalytic potential
摘要:
The biocatalytic potential of two novel Brazilian strains of Aspergillus niger and Rhodotorula glutinis, revealed enantioselective epoxide hydrolase activity in the asymmetrization of meso-epoxide and monosubstituted epoxides respectively. These two types of oxirane derivatives are not usually good substrates for biocatalytic enantioselective conversion. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
