Abstract

Abstract A preparative scale synthesis of 15 N-aspartic acid from fumarate and 15 NH 4 OH catalyzed by immobilized aspartase has been developed. Immobilization of aspartase in membrane enclosed enzyme immobilization (MEEI) facilitates the separation of the enzyme from product and makes the enzyme stable and durable for multiple usage. A simple isolation procedure in total yield of 62% using perfusion ion exchange chromatography ...
