Biocatalysis engineering: the big picture

Roger A. Sheldon and Pedro C. Pereira

Chem. Soc. Rev., 2017, 46(10), pp. 2678-2691.

This tutoral review takes a holistic view on to the engineering of biotransformations utilising isolated enzymes.

The authors highlighted SpinChem® RBR technology benefits and wrote: “… in addition to protecting the biocatalyst from shear forces caused by the stirrer, it greatly accelerates mass transfer, thus affording substantially higher reaction rates and creating the possibility to use much smaller reactors”.
