| Abstract: | A simple method for rapid estimation of the enantioselectivity of lipase in resolution of chiral esters is described. The enantioselectivity of lipase can be estimated rapidly through comparing the dif-ference of hydrolysis rates for the racemic ester and its slow reacting enantiomer under the same condition because the difference mainly depends on the enantioselective ratio(E values). The higher the enantiose-lectivity of enzyme, the larger the difference of hydrolysis rate. The bromothymol blue(BTB) can be used as pH indicator for microplate reader to monitor the formation of acid in lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis ofesters. This method has been successfully used to rapidly estimate the enantioselectivity of several lipases in the resolution of glycidyl butyrate. |
