Application

Application	Comment	Organism
synthesis	synthesis of biodiesel from canola oil. Adding tert-butanol to the reaction medium increases the conversion of oil to fatty acid methyl ester for the enzyme immobilized on epoxy-functionalized silica, 50 wt.% tert-butanol by substrate weight gives the best yield. Presence of water significantly increases fatty acid methyl ester yield. 85% residual activity after 16 reaction cycles	Rhizomucor miehei
synthesis	synthesis of biodiesel from canola oil. Complete conversion to fatty acid methyl esters is achieved using the enzyme immobilized on epoxy-functionalized silica, 30% (w/w) tert-butanol by substrate weight, reaction time of 96 h, 50°C and molar ratio of methanol to oil 3:1, which is added to the reaction mixture in three steps. Water suppresses the methanolysis reaction. 85% residual activity after 16 reaction cycles	Moesziomyces antarcticus
synthesis	synthesis of biodiesel from canola oil. Enzyme immobilized on epoxy-functionalized silica reaches to 100% yield at 10% tert-butanol. Presence of water significantly increases fatty acid methyl ester yield. 95% residual activity after 16 reaction cycles	Thermomyces lanuginosus
