Abstract

Traditionally enzyme reactions have been in many cases performed in aqueous buffer systems. Since the environments inside the cells are rather hydrophilic in some part and hydrophobic in other part of the cells, enzyme reactions can be also performed in hydrophobic condition. Historically, organic solvent was used for steroid bioconversion. Since solubilities of substrate and product steroids are very low in water, they can be solubilized using organic solvent system.
