✦ Synopsis
Crude porcine pancreatic lipase was puriÐed by removing waterinsoluble impurities (residual lipid material) associated with it by a conventional method, using hydrotropic additives and by liquid coacervate extraction. Maximum yield with good recovery of activity was obtained when hydrotropes were used to separate the associated lipids from lipase. The thermostability of the enzyme was also checked in the solutions of additives such as sodium butyl monoglycol sulfate (Na-BMGS), proline and Triton X-114. In Na-BMGS solutions above a concentration of 0É2 mol dm~3 the lipase activity decreased beyond 50¡C whereas in 1 mol dm~3 proline solution it was retained even at 80¡C, showing a good thermostabilizing e †ect. However, in the presence of Triton X-114 the enzyme was completely inactivated with increase in temperature.
