Int J Mol Sci. 2012;13(8):9971-9979. doi: 10.3390/ijms13089971. Epub 2012 Aug 10.

Abstract

Triptorelin lactate was successfully synthesized by porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) in organic solvents. The effects of acyl donor, substrate ratio, organic solvent, temperature, and water activity were investigated. Under the optimum conditions, a yield of 30% for its ester could be achieved in the reaction for about 48 h.

Keywords: enzyme activity; esterification; lipase; triptorelin lactate.
