“…RmL was chosen as biocatalyst for the present investigation. This enzyme has been frequently applied to biotransformations in scCO 2 (Aaltonen, 1999;Blattner et al, 2006), for example, for the esterification of myristic acid with ethanol (Bernard and Barth, 1995), ibuprofen with propanol (Rantakylae and Aaltonen, 1994), as well as in transesterification reactions (Chulalaksananukul et al, 1993;Liu et al, 2006). In order to prepare the RmL-loaded APCNs, 30 mm thick films of PHEA-l-PDMS as well as PHEA-l-PFPE conetworks in varying compositions were immersed into a RmL solution (16.6 mg/mL) and incubated at 48C for 14 h, followed by spectrophotometric determination of the enzyme loading.…”
