Abstract

The kinetics of lipase-catalyzed interesterification synthesis of L-ascorbyl lactate was studied. To determine the enzyme kinetic constants of the interesterification, a three-factor and five-level central composite design was used. The factors studied were ethyl lactate concentration, reaction temperature (T), and water content (w). Moreover, a statistical approach called the response surface method (RSM) was used to predict the kinetic constants. Finally, the relationships between the kinetic constants (V m and K m ) and the reaction parameters (T and w) were obtained.

To assess the accuracy of the RSM approach for determining V m and K m′ detailed validation experiments were carried out by the conventional approach at four different reaction parameters (35°C, 10μL; 45°C, 20μL; 55°C, 15 μL; 65°C, 18μL). The results indicated that the RSM approach gave reasonable results for the determination of Vm and Km in the range of tested parameters.
