Abstract
Hydrolysis of methyloleate was optimized using lipase from Chromobacterium viscosum immobilized on IRC-50. The optimization was studied by a statistical methodology using response surface methodology (RSM). The cumulative interactive effect of substrate, water concentration and time was studied in optimizing the hydrolysis of methyloleate. The interactive effect of substrate-time was found to be significant compared to substrate-water and time-water interactions. A well correlation was observed between the optimum values obtained from the response surface contour plots and from the quadratic regression model equation. The optimal values obtained for substrate, water and time were found to be in the experimental range chosen.
