In this work, a simple and versatile methodology to obtain two different bioconjugated systems has been developed by the immobilization of Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) on hydrophilic gold nanoparticles functionalized with 2-diethylaminoethanethiol hydrochloride (DEA) or with sodium 3-mercapto-1-propanesulfonate (3MPS), namely Au-DEA@CRL and Au-3MPS@CRL. Both spectroscopic and morphological properties of metal nanoparticles have been deeply investigated. The enzyme loading and lipolytic activity of AuNPs@CRL bioconjugates have been studied with respect to different surface functionalization and compared with the free enzyme. Some physical and chemical parameters had a strong effect on enzyme activity and stability, that were improved in the case of the Au-DEA@CRL bioconjugate, which showed a remarkable biocatalytic performance (95% of residual lipolytic activity compared with free CRL) and stability in experimental conditions concerning pH (range 5-8) and temperature (range 20-60°C), as often required for the industrial scale up of catalytic systems.

Adsorption and biodegradation are two important means to remove the pollutants from the environment, but how to combine them and improve the catalytic performance and stability of free enzyme are facing great challenges. Herein, lipase from Candida rugosa (CRL) was immobilized into bimetallic ZnCo-MOF by biomineralization, which not only significantly improved the catalytic activity and stability of CRL but also endowed it with excellent reusability. Furthermore, CRL@ZnCo-MOF established a synergetic system of combined adsorption and enzymatic degradation for the sustainable removal of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) in actual water environment.

The objective of this study was to produce new and renewable bio-based plasticizers from used soybean cooking oil (USCO). First, USCO was completely converted into free fatty acids (FFAs) using lipase from Candida rugosa. Next, these FFAs were enzymatically esterified with benzyl alcohol in solvent-free systems.

Phthalate esters (PAEs) are broadly utilized as plasticizers in industrial products, posing a significant threat to ecological security and human health. Lipase is a kind of green biocatalyst with the ability to degrade PAEs, but its application is limited due to its low stability and poor reusability. Herein, lipase from Candida rugosa (CRL) was immobilized into an organic ligand replacement MOFs (MAF-507) and cysteine modification and glutaraldehyde cross-linking were simultaneously performed to synthesize immobilized lipase (Cys-CRL@GA@MAF-507) using a one-pot method.

Considering the selective pharmacological activity of chiral drugs, it is important to develop new chiral materials to synthesize them. In this work, two new chiral MOFs (UiO-66@Np and UiO-66@Ib) were prepared by the covalent attachment of the chiral compounds (S-naproxen and S-ibuprofen) to the amine-functionalized Zr-MOF (UiO-66-NH). Then, Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) was immobilized on these chiral MOFs to fabricate two new biocomposites (UiO-66@Np@CRL and UiO-66@Ib@CRL) as effective biocatalysts, which enable significant enhancement in the catalytic activity and enantioselectivity of lipase.
