The optimal temperature, activation energy (Ea), and kinetic parameters (Vmax, KM) for each nitrophenol isomers were determined. When esterification activities were evaluated, the highest activities were observed for 3-NP and 4-NP for PPL and CRL, respectively. However, when nitrophenol isomer was 2-NP, both PPL and CRL showed the lowest esterification activity. In simultaneous esterification reactions where 2-NP 3-NP and 4-NP were used together, the regioselectivity tendency was the same, with 2-NP esterification being negligible after 6 hours reaction time. A multi-wavelength UV-Vis method was validated to quantify individual NPs in mixture samples with high accuracy. The study confirms the strong influence of substituent position on lipase activity and highlights the potential of immobilized lipases for regioselective biotransformations.</p></abstract>

                            <p>Heksan içinde asetik asit ile nitrofenol izomerlerinin (2-NP, 3-NP, 4-NP) esterleşmesinde immobilize Candida rugosa lipaz (CRL) ve domuz pankreas lipazının regioseçiciliği araştırılmıştır. Her bir nitrofenol izomeri için optimal sıcaklık, aktivasyon enerjisi (Ea) ve kinetik parametreler (Vmax, KM) belirlenmiştir. Esterleşme aktiviteleri değerlendirildiğinde, PPL ve CRL için sırasıyla 3-NP ve 4-NP&#039;de en yüksek aktiviteler gözlemlenmiştir. Ancak, nitrofenol izomeri 2-NP olduğunda, hem PPL hem de CRL en düşük esterleşme aktivitesini göstermiştir. 2-NP, 3-NP ve 4-NP&#039;nin birlikte kullanıldığı eşzamanlı esterleşme reaksiyonlarında, regioselektiflik eğiliminin aynı olduğu ve 6 saatlik reaksiyon süresinden sonra 2-NP&#039;nin ihmal edilebilir düzeyde esterleşme reaksiyonu verdiği tespit edilmiştir. Karışım numunelerindeki her bir NPisomerini yüksek doğrulukla ölçmek için çok dalga boylu UV-Vis yöntemi doğrulandı. Çalışma, ikame pozisyonunun lipaz aktivitesi üzerindeki güçlü etkisini doğrulamakta ve bölgesel seçici biyotransformasyonlar için immobilize lipazların potansiyelini vurgulamaktadır.</p></trans-abstract>
