    Abstract

    The growth conditions for prodn. of C sporogenes were optimized to obtain maximal biocatalytic activity in harvested cells. The reaction conditions for C = C redn. using harvested cells were also optimized. The efficiency of electron donors for reducing cinnamate was in the order hydrogen>phenylalanine>glucose. The enantiopurity of the nitroalkene product depended on substrate concn., incubation time and pH in the reaction. [on SciFinder (R)]
