Production of 11alpha-hydroxyprogesterone using Aspergillus terreus immobilized on polytetrafluoroethylene Produção de 11alfa-hidroxiprogesterona por Aspergillus terreus imobilizado em politetrafluoretileno
In attempt to immobilize the mycelial fungi on a new hydrophobic matrix, Aspergillus terreus mycelia were immobilized into polytetrafluoroethylen (PTFE) and used for selected conversion of progesterone to 11alpha-hydroxyprogesterone. The immobilized cells exhibited higher yields than the free cells....
