Disclosed are preparations of modified interfacial enzymes, particularly lipases and phospholipases, immobilized on a solid support, wherein the enzyme is surrounded by hydrophobic microenvironment, thereby protected from deactivation and/or aggregation in the presence of hydrophilic agents, substrates and/or reaction products. The enzyme may be protected by being covalently bonded with lipid groups which coat the enzyme, or by being immobilized or embedded in a hydrophobic solid support. Also disclosed are processes for the preparation of the hydrophobically protected enzymes. The enzymes may be efficiently used in the preparation of biodiesel. |
