Kinetic Model for the Hydrolysis of Olive Oil by Lipase in Absence of Emulsifier

Received: 27 March 2024;  Published: 18 July 2024;  doi: 10.21926/cr.2403009

Abstract

Lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of olive oil has been studied in the absence of emulsifier. A simple mathematical model to predict the hydrolysis rate is derived from a proposed kinetic mechanism of the reaction. The hydrolytic reaction obeys Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a simultaneous second-order en [...]
