Abstract

The kinetic parameters for penicillin G hydrolysis in systems with penicillin G acylase from Escherichia coli (free and immobilized on activated chitosan microbeads produced by electrostatic extrusion) were determined. The obtained kinetic results indicated that both systems (free and immobilized) are inhibited by high concentrations of the substrate (penicillin G) as well as by products of the reaction (6‐aminopenicillanic acid and phenylacetic acid). The microbeads appeared convenient for penicillin G acylase immobilization reducing negative inhibitory effects. The hydrolysis was also investigated in a packed bed reactor. The derived kinetic model predicted good hydrolysis rates in the reactor while the system with recirculation of the reaction mixture proved to be a potentially favorable solution providing operation at low shear stresses and possibly higher hydrolysis rates than in the packed bed reactor alone.

The possibility of using the multicompartment immobilized enzyme reactor (MIER) in presence of a charged substrate is here explored. Penicillin G acylase is used to convert penicillin G (a free acid, with a pK of 2.6) into two charged products: phenyl acetic acid (PAA, with a pK of 4.2) and 6-aminop

## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** Penicillin G acylase (PGA) has been used extensively in the β‐lactam antibiotics industry. As a biocatalyst, it is better to use immobilized enzymes than free enzymes, therefore, the immobilization of PGA on a composite carrier consisting of an adsorbent resin and biocom

## Abstract Penicillin G acylase (PGA) is an important enzyme for the industrial production of 7‐amino‐3‐deacetoxy cephalosporanic acid (7‐ADCA) from cephalosporin G (Ceph‐G), and 6‐aminopenicillanic acid (6‐APA) from penicillin G (Pen‐G). These products are used for the manufacture of semi‐synthet
