Biocatalysis in ionic liquids: enzymatic synthesis of sugar fatty acid esters

Sugar fatty acid esters (SFAEs) are composed of one or more fatty acid chains linked to a carbohydrate molecule. They are commonly used as non-ionic and biodegradable surfactants and emulsifiers. However, SFAEs also present other interesting features such as tasteless, odorless, non-toxicity, and bi...
