title: Study of enzyme-catalysed polymerization of lactic acid by HPLC and MALDI-MS.
abstract: The enzyme-catalysed polymerization of lactic acid was tested by HPLC and MALDI-MS methods. A chiral HPLC technique was applied to the investigation of the enantio-selectivity of the reaction. The polymer compounds formed were identified by MALDI-MS.
