| Analysis Note: | Crude (Steapsin). Contains amylase and protease activity. |
| Analysis Note: | Protein determined by biuret. |
| Application: | Lipase from porcine pancreas has been used: • for the analysis of fatty acid at the 2-position of triglycerides. • to determine the indigestible fraction of plant source that is resistant to the action of digestive enzymes. • as a component of dissolution media to study the dissolution profiles of theophylline. |
| Application: | Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of esters in aqueous solutions and the synthesis of esters in non-aqueous solutions. They also produce hydroxyl and carboxylic groups through the hydrolysis of ester linkages in poly(ethylene terephthalate). Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into glycerol and free fatty acids. |
| Other Notes: | One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 microequivalent of fatty acid from triacetin in 1 hr at pH 7.4 at 37°C. (pH 7.7 is used with olive oil as substrate) |
