Figure 5

Contour plot for the esterification (%) as a function of (a) substrate ratio and Wo using n-hexane as solvent used for MBG preparation with hold values of time at 7.5 days (coded value 0.5) and enzyme concentration at 77.5 mg/mL (coded value 0.9). (b) Enzyme concentration and substrate ratio using n-hexane as solvent used for MBG preparation with hold values of time at 7.5 days (coded value 0.5) and enzyme concentration at 80 mg/mL (coded value 1). (c) Time and substrate ratio using n-hexane as solvent used for MBG preparation with hold values of Wo = 80 (coded value 1) and enzyme concentration at 70 mg/mL (coded value 0.6).
