Kinetics and optimization of lipase-catalyzed synthesis of rose fragrance 2-phenylethyl acetate through transesterification

Lipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized on a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane for synthesis of rose flavor ester, 2-phenylethyl acetate. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed for kinetic modeling of process and prediction the yield. The RSM was used in practice for determining the kinetic models by fitting the initial rate dates based on the equations of ping-pong bi–bi and order bi–bi model. The maximum reaction rate and kinetic...
