Lipase immobilised on silica monoliths as continuous-flow microreactors for triglyceride transesterification (2017)
Journal Article
Alotaibi, M., Manayil, J. C., Greenway, G. M., Haswell, S. J., Kelly, S. M., Lee, A. F., …Kyriakou, G. (2017). Lipase immobilised on silica monoliths as continuous-flow microreactors for triglyceride transesterification. Reaction Chemistry and Engineering, 3(1), 68-74. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7re00162b

Lipase immobilised on silica monoliths has been prepared and applied as biocatalytic continuous-flow microreactors for the transesterification of tributyrin as a model bio-oil component. Candida antarctica lipase was trapped within the pores of silic... Read More about Lipase immobilised on silica monoliths as continuous-flow microreactors for triglyceride transesterification.

Silicon diimide gel as an efficient stationary phase in thin layer chromatography for acid-sensitive organic compounds (2017)
Journal Article
Kitney, S. P., Sajedin, S. M., Rocher, V., Cheng, F., & Kelly, S. M. (2017). Silicon diimide gel as an efficient stationary phase in thin layer chromatography for acid-sensitive organic compounds. Chemical communications : Chem comm / the Royal Society of Chemistry, 53(80), 11080-11082. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7cc04952h

We report the use of mesoporous silicon diimide gel as a basic stationary phase in thin layer chromatography for the characterisation and purification of acid-sensitive compounds. The gel is prepared by a simple sol-gel process and exhibits a large s...
