A process is provided to produce a concentrated aqueous peracid solution in situ using at least one enzyme having perhydrolase activity in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (at a concentration of at least 500 mM) under neutral to acidic reaction conditions from suitable carboxylic acid esters (including glycerides) and/or amides substrates. The concentrated peracid solution produced is sufficient for use in a variety of disinfection and/or bleaching applications.

International Classification:
C11D 3/386
US Classification:
510305000, 510375000
Abstract:
A process is provided for producing peroxycarboxylic acids from carboxylic acid esters. More specifically, carboxylic acid esters are reacted in situ with an inorganic peroxide in the presence of a non-heme haloperoxidase having perhydrolysis activity to produce peroxycarboxylic acids.
Lyophilized Bioluminescent Bacterial Reagent For The Detection Of Toxicants

Assignee:
E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
C12N 121 C12N 1500 C12Q 166 C12Q 168
US Classification:
435 732
Abstract:
A reagent, useful in the detection of environmental insults comprising bacterial cells containing a stress promoter operably linked to a lux gene complex has been prepared by lyophilizing the cells in a specified medium. The reagent may be used immediately upon rehydration where a positive test for the presence of an environmental insult is given by an increase in light production from the cells.
