Synthesis of Ethyl Levulinate by a New Bio-nanocatalyst

Lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus was physically anchored to AgAu-Fe3O4@tartaric acid nanoparticles (NPs) to be used for the conversion of levulinic acid into ethyl-levulinate, in the presence of ethanol. The proposed strategy explored the direct immobilization of the enzyme on the as-prepared tar...
