Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Triglycerides at the Water-Oil Interface Studied via Interfacial Rheology Analysis of Lipase Adsorption Layers.

The enzymatic hydrolysis of sunflower oil occurs at the water-oil interface. Therefore, the characterization of dynamic interfacial phenomena is essential for understanding the related mechanisms for process optimizations. Most of the available studies for this purpose deal with averaged interfacial properties determined via reaction kinetics and dynamic surface tension measurements.
