A Study on Alkyl Glucoside Synthesis by Amphiphilic Phase Enzyme Reaction

양친매상 효소반응에 의한 알킬글루코시드의 합성연구

An amphiphilic phase enzyme reaction was used to synthesize alkyl glucosides from glucose and alkyl alcohol with immobilized ${\beta}$-glucosidase using four glycol ether cosolvents(monoglyme, diglyme, 2-methoxyethanol, and 1,4-dioxane). Monoglyme was shown to be the best cosolvent for the amphiphilic phase medium composed of water/cosolvent/alkyl alcohol admixture. To obtain high yield of alkyl glucoside by amphiphilic phase enzyme reaction, hydrophilicity-hydrophobicity of amphiphilic media and enzyme microenvironment was optimized from the viewpoints of substrate solubility, enzyme activity, water activity, and dynamic equilibrium between glucose alcoholysis and glucoside hydrolysis. Under optimum reaction conditions, the highest concentrations of hexyl, octyl, decyl, and dodecyl glucosides were 18.2, 9.68, 7.27, and 6.03g/L, respectively.

본 연구에서는 친수성기질과 소수성기질을 함께 수용하는 수용성 상용용매를 사용하여 반응매질의 친수성과 소수성이 알킬글루코시드의 합성반응에 적 합하도록 조절된 양친매질을 개발하고 hydrophili C city control이 이루어진 효소반응기술을 이용하여 효소의 활성도와 안정성, 기질의 가용화, 얄킬글루코 시드의 수율과 농도의 관점에셔 가장 바람직한 양친 매상 효소반응공정 (amphiphilic phase enzyme re action process)을 제시하였으며, 핵실글루코시드, 옥틸글루코시드, 데실글루코시드 및 도데실글루코시 드를 합성한 결과 생생물 농도는 각각 18.2, 9.68, 7.27, 6.03g/L을 얻였다.
