Abstract
The immobilized lipase from Candida antarctica (fraction B, CALB) was incubated in glycerols with various water contents at 80-100 °C to measure the residual activity as a function of time. The glycerol-containing water stabilized the immobilized CALB, especially at 30-60 wt% water contents. The thermal inactivation behaviors of the immobilized CALB were expressed by a model in which the free energy of activation for the inactivation of the immobilized lipase molecules obeyed a Gaussian distribution.
