Abstract:
1. A process for producing a target concentration of peroxycarboxylic acid comprising: (a) selecting a set of reaction components comprising: wherein X=an ester group of the formula R R R wherein R m=1 to the number of carbon atoms in R wherein said esters have solubility in water of at least 5 ppm at 25° C.; (ii) glycerides having the structure wherein R (iii) acetylated saccharides selected from the group consisting of acetylated monosaccharides, acetylated disaccharides, and acetylated polysaccharides; (2) a source of peroxygen; and (3) an enzyme catalyst having perhydrolysis activity, wherein said enzyme catalyst comprises an enzyme having a signature motif that aligns with a reference sequence SEQ ID NO:2 using CLUSTALW, said signature motif comprising: (b) combining the reaction components under aqueous reactions to form a reaction mixture; whereby reaction products are formed comprising enzymatically-produced peroxycarboxylic acid; wherein
