| Abstract: | The hydrolysis of olive oil catalyzed by Chromobacterium viscosum lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) in a water/isooctane two-phase system was carried out both under ultrasound and conventional stirring. The maximum activity of lipase in the ultrasonicated system was 1.75 times higher than that in the stirred system. The lipase activity was dependent on ultrasonic power and volume ratio of isooctane to water. The optimum reaction temperature in both systems was around 25°C. The stability of lipase at 25°C in the ultrasonicated system decreased more rapidly than that in the stirred system. In the presence of exogenous oleic acid, however the half-life of lipase in the ultrasonicated system was improved to a value, which was respectively half and twice of that in stirred systems with and without oleic acid. The maximum reaction rate (Vmax) was increased by ultrasonication whereas the Michaelis constant (Km) remained unaltered. |
