Microbial Lipases: Industrial Applications and Properties (A Review)

Enzymes are considered nature’s catalysts. Lipases are versatile enzymes that are used widely. In fact, over the last few years, there has been a progressive increase in the number of publications related to properties and industrial applications of lipase-catalyzed reactions. So by keeping in view the immense applications of lipase enzyme the present review is focused on properties such as pH and temperature kinetics, stability in organic solvents, effect of metal ions, lipase inhibitors, nonspecific reversible inhibitors and various industrial applications including fat and oil processing, food industry, detergents, pulp and paper industry, oleochemical industry, environment management, tea processing, biosensors, diagnostic tools, cosmetics and perfumery and medical applications of lipase.
