Article Synopsis
- This study explored three deep eutectic mixtures (DES) as solvents for synthesizing glucose laurate and glucose acetate, aiming for eco-friendly production methods.
- Lipases from different sources (Aspergillus oryzae, Candida rugosa, and porcine pancreas) were used as catalysts and showed no enzyme inactivation in the DES environments.
- The results indicated that certain DES combinations improved product yields, with DES 2 achieving a remarkable 98% yield for glucose laurate and a significant performance for glucose acetate in DES 1, demonstrating the potential of sustainable biocatalysis.
