Enzymatic activity ofChromobacterium viscosum lipase in an AOT/Tween 85 mixed reverse micellar system

Abstract: To enhance the Chromobacterium viscosum lipase (glycerol-ester hydrolase; EC 3.1.1.3) activity for the reaction of water-insoluble substrates, the AOT/isooctane reverse micellar interface was modi®ed by co-adsorption of a non-ionic surfactant. Polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate (Tween 85) was used as the non-ionic surfactant and olive oil as a water-insoluble substrate. An appreciable increase of lipase activity was observed and at higher W o values (where W o = molar ratio of water to total surfactants of the… Show more

“…When a non-ionic surfactant Tween80 was introduced into the ionic RMs, the interaction between the anionic AOT head groups and the enzyme at the micellar interface decreased, which might suppress the hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions of enzyme molecules with the AOT molecules. 3,4 This phenomenon is similar to those reported in other recent works. 3 In addition, it is worth mentioning that the optimum W 0 was practically unchanged before and after Tween80 was added into the AOT reverse micellar system, while a change from 22 to 18 occurred in the TTAB reverse micellar system.…”

“…This effect has been reported by many researchers. 3,6,15,29 In addition, the results of Fig 3 also suggest that a non-mixed Tween80 RMs such as Tween80/isooctane RMs, is probably not a suitable medium for papain. In other words, the roles of two surfactants in mixed RMs cannot be mutually replaced because of their difference in polarity.…”
