Activities in Crude Porcine Pancreatic Lipase: Enantioselectivity in Hydrolysis of the Diacetate of 2-Phenylpropane-1,3-Diol

Abstract
The hydrolysis of a prochiral diacetate by porcine pancreatic lipase is catalysed by the purified enzyme, not by an enzyme present in the crude enzyme but absent from the purified enzyme, as previously reported.
