Influence of organic solvents on cutinase stability and accessibility to polyamide fibers

ABSTRACT: The stability of cutinase was measured in the presence of imethylacetamide (DMA) and benzyl alcohol (BA). These solvents are known swelling agents of polyamide fibers. We found that cutinase retains some stability (half-life of 14 h), enough for an enzymatic treatment with a solvent composi...
