Abstract The activity of immobilised soybean lipoxygenase-1 (LOX-1) was studied in aqueous and supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) media for the production of 13S-hydroperoxyoctadecadenoic acid (13S-HPODE). In SCCO2, it was optimal at 33 °C and 25 MPa. A higher space-time yield of 5.7×10−3 Ms−1 mg−1 LOX-1 for 13S-HPODE was obtained in SCCO2 compared to only 5×10−5 Ms−1 mg−1 LOX-1 in aqueous medium. The stability of immobilised LOX-1 was only significantly affected by the pressurisation and depressurisation steps during reactions in SCCO2.
