Steroid hydroxylation with free and immobilized cells of Penicillium raistrickii in the presence of beta-cyclodextrin.
Free and Ca-alginate-immobilized cells of Penicillium raistrickii i 477 were used for 15 alpha-hydroxylation of 13-ethyl-gon-4-en-3,17-dione. The product formation of both free and immobilized cells was increased in the presence of beta-cyclodextrin, in comparison with reactions carried out in the presence of methanol. Application of beta-cyclodextrin led to increasing solubility of the steroid substrate. The fungus was able to utilize beta-cyclodextrin as a carbon source.
