Effect of Visible Light on Catalytic Hydrolysis of P-nitrophenyl Palmitate by the Pseudomonas Cepacia Lipase Immobilized on Sol–Gel Support
This paper demonstrates Pseudomonas cepacia lipase catalyzed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl palmitate under irradiation of light with wavelengths of 250–750 nm. The reaction follows Michaelis–Menten Kinetics and the light irradiation increases the overall rate of hydrolysis. Using Lineweaver–Burk plot...
