Lipases (triacylglycerol acylhydrolases, E.C. 3.1.1.3) are enzymes generally used in several industrial applications. This study aimed to screen lipase-producing yeast isolates obtained from Makiling Forest Reserve (MFR), Philippines and to optimize conditions required for the mass production of the...
