The application of whole cells as catalytic biofilms in microchannels has attracted increasing scientific interest. However, the excessive biomass formation and structure of biofilms in a reactor limits their use. A microchannel reactor with surface modification was used to colonize recombinant BL21-pET28a- rapidly and accelerated growth of biofilms in the microchannel.

Human milk fat-style structured triacylglycerols were produced from microalgal oil in a continuous microfluidic reactor packed with immobilized lipase for the first time. A remarkably high conversion efficiency was demonstrated in the microreactor with reaction time being reduced by 8 times, Michaelis constant decreased 10 times, the lipase reuse times increased 2.25-fold compared to those in a batch reactor.

An efficient and rapid process for isoquercitrin production by hesperidinase-catalyzed hydrolysis of rutin was successfully developed under microwave irradiation detecting the affinity by circular dichroism (CD) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy. A maximum isoquercitrin yield of 91.5±2.
