摘要: A sustainable and efficient reaction system for enzymatic oil modification is imperative for the food industry. Given the interfacial activation effect of lipase, the sufficient oil-water interface is vital for excellent catalytic activity of lipase. In the present study, a Pickering emulsion reaction system was prepared through directly using reactants as the oil phase and stabilized by mesoporous carbon spheres (MCS) after immobilization of lipase AYS (Candida rugosa, lipase@MCS). Lipase@MCS worked as both the emulsifier and catalyst. Each droplet in the Pickering emulsion was regarded as a microreactor with the reactants in the oil phase, and the removal of the product H2O "pushed" the reaction forward. Taking advantage of the adequate oil-water interface for "lid" opening of lipase and rapid mass transfer in MCS, the Pickering emulsion exhibited excellent enzymatic activity toward phytosterol esterification and transesterification, achieving 95.0% conversion after 1.5 h and catalytic efficiency (CE) of 6.8 mmol g(-1) h(-1) under nonequilibrium conditions. It is the best performance reported currently with the shortest reaction time, minimal amount of catalyst, and the highest CE (19-fold higher than free lipase one-phase reaction system). Immobilization of lipase on the MCS not only endowed the lipase with exceptional recyclability but also afforded a shield to protect the enzyme from deactivation in a harsh environment, as evidenced by the thermotolerance and recycling test results. This paper paves the way to advancing progress in enzyme-immobilized Pickering emulsion as a sustainable and high-efficiency platform for biocatalysis application.
