| Popis: | In this study, enzymatic oxidation of glycerol was performed for the production of glyceric acid. The effectiveness of immobilised laccase in Na-Alginate matrix was also verified. Glycerol was incubated at 25oC with 30mM of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO), which acted as a mediator, in the presence of immobilized laccase from Trametes versicolor. Glyceric acid was quantified using HPLC, while the activity of enzyme was measured using ABTS assay. The yield of laccase activity was 90%. On the other hand, glyceric acid obtained was around 7 wt% from the total product at 24h. In conclusion, enzymatic oxidation is able to produce comparable amount of glyceric acid through a more environmental friendly method. |
