Peracetic acid production method and acetyl xylan esterase for peracetic acid production

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for producing peracetic acid is provided to produce the peracetic acid by treating acetyl xylan esterase with ethyl acetate and hydrogen peroxide. CONSTITUTION: A method for producing peracetic acid comprises a step of preparing the peracetic acid using acetyl xylan esterase. The peracetic acid is produced by treating the acetyl xylan esterase with ethyl acetate and hydrogen peroxide. The acetyl xylan esterase is expressed by a recombinant acetyl xylan esterase gene, and is expressed by a strain which produces the acetyl xylan esterase.
