Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis synthesis of (R)-mandelic acid from (R,S)-mandelonitrile by use of Escherichia coli overexpressing the enzyme in a bioreactor. After a single batch reaction, (R)-mandelic acid can be obtained with 87% yield and 99.99% enantiomeric excess Pseudomonas putida
