Abstract

Candidarugosa lipase immobilized by adsorption on the swollen Sephadex LH-20 and Sephadex LH-60 could effectively hydrolyze olive oil at high concentration in a reverse phase system. Initial water content was found to be the most important factor that determines both the hydrolysis rate and the degree of hydrolysis; approximately 54% of water in the gels was readily utilized.
