Figure 4From: Biocatalytic synthesis of ethyl (R)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyrate with a newly isolated Rhodotorula mucilaginosa CCZU-G5 in an aqueous/organic biphasic system Effects of cell concentration on asymmetric reduction of OPBE to ( R )-HPBE in aqueous/isooctane biphasic system. Reaction conditions: 2.0 g wet cells in 10 mL PBS (0.1 M, pH 7.5) containing 1.0 g glucose, mixed with 10 mL isooctane containing 2 mmol OPBE, and incubated at 35°C and 180 rpm for 24 h.Back to article page
