Effect of water content and temperature on Carica papaya lipase catalyzed esterification and transesterification reactions

Temperature and water activity (a w) of the reaction medium are two factors that govern enzyme reactions. We studied the influence of these two parameters on the esterification and transesterification activity of Carica papaya lipase in water and solvent free reactions. It was found that over t...
