Abstract: | Summary The lipase found in oat seeds acts upon castor oil in organic solvent, yielding approximately 90% ricinoleic acid. Initial velocity is a poor predictor of the time required for complete lipolysis except at low oil concentrations. Equations were developed to estimate kinetic parameters necessary to accurately predict the degree of lipolysis. |
