Abstract

The covalent immobilization of crude lipases within silica-based macroporous frameworks have been performed by combining sol-gel process, concentrated direct emulsion, lyotropic mesophase and post-synthesis functionalizations. The as-synthesized open cell hybrid monoliths exhibit high macroscopic porosity, around 90 %, providing interconnected scaffold while reducing the diffusion low kinetic issue. The entrapment of enzymes in such foams deals with a high stability over esterification and transesterification batch process catalysis.
