Lauryl ferulate (LF) was synthesized through lipase-catalyzed esterification of ferulic acid (FA) with lauryl alcohol in a novel ionic liquid ([(EO)-3C-im][NTf]), and its antibacterial activities was evaluated in vitro against three food-related bacteria. [(EO)-3C-im][NTf] was first synthesized through incorporating alkyl ether moiety into the double imidazolium ring. [(EO)-3C-im][NTf] containing hexane was found to be the most suitable for this reaction. The effects of various parameters were studied, and the maximum yield of LF (90.1%) was obtained in the optimum reaction conditions, in [(EO)-3C-im][NTf]/hexane (V:V=1:1) system, 0.08mmol/mL of FA concentration, 50mg/mL Novozym 435, 60°C. LF exhibited a stronger antibacterial activity against Gram-negative (25 mm) than Gram-positive (21.5-23.2 mm) bacteria. The lowest MIC value was seen for E. coli (1.25mM), followed by L. Monocytogenes (2.5mM) and S.aureus (5mM). The MBCs for L. Monocytogenes, S.aureus and E. coli were 10, 20 and 5mM.

Chlorogenic acid, a well-known antioxidant, has potential applications in health care, food, and cosmetic sectors. However, its low solubility hinders its application at the industrial scale. The primary goal of the present study was to increase the lipophilic property of chlorogenic acid through esterification using an ultrasonication approach and Novozym® 435 as the catalyst.

Bacterial lipases are versatile extracellular enzymes with a catalytic triad at the active site and a flexible 'lid' that modulates catalytic accessibility. We combined computational modeling with preliminary in vitro testing to assess the structural stability and activity of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 lipase (PAL). We evaluated several systems consisting of the native and mutant forms of the lipase in n-hexane using molecular dynamics simulations.

Structured lipids (SLs) are modified triacylglycerols with specific physicochemical or nutritional properties. Acyl migration is a universal chemical phenomenon observed during interesterification, a critical process in the enzyme-catalyzed synthesis of SLs. Acyl migration causes shifts in the positional composition of lipids that bring changes in function.

This study hypothesizes that the solvent-free alcoholysis of oil recovered from salmon heads using vanillyl alcohol (VA) and immobilized lipase B can efficiently produce esters with enhanced stability and antioxidant properties. The objective was to investigate the selectivity and resulting ester profile, which may provide nutritional and functional advantages compared to supplementing oil with vanillyl alcohol. After 24 h, nearly complete conversion of vanillyl alcohol was achieved, leading to the production of various esters reflective of the oil's original fatty acid composition.

A sustainable approach for CO capture and chemo-enzymatic transformation into bis(cyclic carbonate) esters from CO, glycidol, and organic anhydrides under solvent-free conditions has been demonstrated. The chemo-enzymatic process is based on two consecutive catalytic steps, which can be executed through separated operations or within a one-pot combo system, taking advantage of the synergic effects that emerge from integrating ionic liquid (IL) technologies and biocatalysts. In a first step, lipase-catalyzed transesterification and esterification reactions of different diacyl donors (e.
