摘要: Most enzymes provide their optimum performance at a given water activity (aw), which is generally solvent independent. For organic liquid specific temperature or for supercritical and pressure this corresponds to concentration in has the desired activity. We present here methodology predicting thus reducing substantially amount of experimental work needed find with respect equilibrium conversion.If enzyme known, predicts required content achieve aw value. If, addition, curve available, provides total that must be added system (enzyme plus solvent) so can obtained.The same also applied predict effect (initial initial prod...
