- a solution of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl- ethylenediamine (0.928 g, 8 mmol) in distilled water (5 g) was dispersed in mineral oil (Isopar M, 350 g) in a reactor (1 L) at 450 ⁇ m.
- the monomer solution, the cell suspension and the oil phase were separately purged with nitrogen for 15 min.
- the monomer solution (flow rate: 2.5 g/min) and the cell suspension (flow rate: 5 g/min) were separately pumped in a 2.5 mL mixing flask.
- the resulting mixture was immediately dropped in the stirred (450 ⁇ m, visco-jet ® stirrer) oil at 20 °C.
- the reaction mixture was stirred for further 3.75 h at 20 °C.
- the obtained polyacrylamide beads containing encapsulated cells of a strain of the species Escherichia coli were separated and washed as described in example 3, and stored in phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 7.0) at 4 °C.
- the swollen beads were of irregular spherical shape with size of 1000 ⁇ m to 2000 ⁇ m and a mechanical strength of >200 m ⁇ .
- the ratio of dry polyacrylamide beads/wet polyacrylamide beads was 0.25:1.00 (w/w).
- the specific activity was 0.016 ⁇ mol nicotinamide/(min x mg dry polyacrylamide beads).
- Polyacrylamide beads containing encapsulated cells of the genus Rhodococcus obtained as described in example 7 were added to a gently stirred solution of a nitrile in phosphate buffer (0.05 M, pH 7, 100 mL) or in a mixture of phosphate buffer (0.05 M, pH 7, 100 mL) and methanol at 25 °C. Samples (3 mL) were taken after 5, 15 and 60 minutes and mixed immediately with H 2 SO (48% (w/w), 0.03 mL). The reaction mixture was analyzed by HPLC or GC. The specific activity was determined. The results are given in Table 2.
- Table 2 Biotransformation of various nitriles to the corresponding amides using polyacrylamide beads containing cells of the genus Rhodococcus containing a nitrile hydratase as the biocatalyst.
