title: Enantioselective hydrolysis of various substituted styrene oxides with Aspergillus Niger CGMCC 0496.
abstract: Enantioselective biohydrolysis of various substituted styrene oxides using whole fungus cells of Aspergillus nigerCGMCC 0496 are described. The results show not only para- but also some ortho- substituted styrene oxides can achieve high enantioselectivity during the hydrolysis.
