A REVIEW ON APPLICATIONS OF LIPASE Authors: Upadhyay D , MAVI H, ANDHARE P, MARCHAWALA F, BHATTACHARYA I
ABSTRACT
Lipases are very versatile enzymes that attract the attention of numerous industries.
Different sources, including poultry, vegetables and microbiological sources, can
derive lipase. The 2018 microbial lipase consumption demand estimated at USD
425.0 million is projected to reach USD 590.2 million by 2023, up by 6.8% from
2018. Long chain triglyceride hydrolysis catalyses microbial lipases (EC 3.1.1.3).
Logically, lipase enzyme microbial sources are complex and are also used for a
wide range of industrial applications in the processing of modified molecules. The
specific lipase (triacylglycerol acyl hydrolase) enzymes catalysed hydrolysis,
esterification and alcoholytic reactions. Incorporating microbial lipases,
immobilisation is best achieved and thus suited for many reactions and the aroma of
the immobilisation processes needs to be boosted. The large-scale screening of
lipase production includes Alcaligenes, Bacillus spp., Pseudomono spp.,
Achromobacter spp., Arthrobacter spp. of bacteria and Penicillium spp., Fusarium
spp., Aspergillus spp., fungi. Lipases have provided a favourable view as a
multifunctional biological catalyst to address the needs of a range of industries,
including biodiesel, food and drinks, leather, textiles, pharmaceuticals and medicines. This review provides an overview of microbial lipase sources as well as
key aspects of microbial lipases production.
