  • Abstract
    Various types of biocatalysts like oxidases, alcohol dehydrogenases, and microbial cells were tested for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol. Oxidases in combination with molecular oxygen led to low conversion. Alcohol dehydrogenases and microbial cells were tested in a hydrogen transfer reaction employing acetaldehyde, chloroacetone, and acetone as hydrogen acceptor. Excellent conversion (95%) could be achieved employing lyophilised cells of Janibacter terrae DSM 13953 at a substrate concentration of 97 mM.
