## Abstract Esterification of corn and sunflower acid oils with straightโ and branchedโchain alcohols were conducted using lipaseโ B from __Candida antarctica__ (Novozymโ 435) in __n__โhexane. Sunflower acid oil consisted of 55.6% free fatty acids and 24.7% triacylglycerols, while the free fatty acid

A simple synthesis of sugar fatty acid esters was developed in a nonaqueous solution using lipase modified by synthetic detergent. Esterification of sugar was accelerated by continuous removal of water from the reaction mixture with a molecular sieve. When glucose and palmitic acid (1:1 by mole) wer
## Abstract The low solubility of sugars has hampered the lipaseโcatalyzed synthesis of fatty acid sugar esters in organic solvents and ionic liquids (ILs), because several solvents that are able to effectively dissolve sugars are detrimental to enzymes. In this work, in order to prepare a high con
