Abstract

Abstract Lipophilic derivatives of phenolic acids could greatly extend their applications in the lipophilic bio-environment and food processing, therefore, developing an efficient lipophilization reaction system constitutes an interesting topic of biocatalysis. Low solubility of phenolic acids in most enzyme-benign solvents represents the main reason for the inefficiency of enzymatic production of lipophilic phenolic derivatives. This work reports a ...
