Deracemisation and stereoinversion of alpha-amino acids using D-amino acid oxidase and hydride reducing agents.
The deracemisation and stereoinversion of both cyclic and acyclic DL-alpha-amino acids, using porcine kidney D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) and a hydride reducing agent (NaCNBH3-NaBH4), has been investigated.
