Nonionic surfactants and their effects on asymmetric reduction of 2-octanone with Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract In an aqueous buffer system, serious reverse and side reactions were found in the asymmetric reduction of 2-octanone with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, some nonionic surfactants added to the aqueous buffer system improved the bioreduction process by decreasing the reverse and side reac...
