Ethylene epoxidation by native and immobilized cells of the propane-assimilating culture Rhodococcus erythropolis 3/89

摘要

Adsorption of cells of the propane-assimilating strain Rhodococcus erythropolis 3/89 on various carriers was studied. The cells adsorbed on DEAE cellulose were shown to display the maximum activity. The conditions of ethylene oxide formation by native and immobilized cells were studied. The advantage of immobilized cells and the possibility of their practical uses were demonstrated.
