Enzyme activity was profiled at temperatures between 45 and 95°C, pH between 4 and 8, and IL concentrations between 0 and 40% (v/v) of [C2mim][OAc]. The temperature and pH that elicited the highest activity is indicated in row Topt and pHopt, respectively. Temperature and pH ranges that permitted greater than 80% and 50% activity are indicated below the optimum value. IL-tolerance is indicated as the maximum concentration of [C2mim][OAc] that permits at least 80% and 50% enzyme activity (i.e. a value of 15 in the 80% row would indicate that 15% (v/v) of [C2mim][OAc] is the maximum concentration of [C2mim][OAc] that can be used to retain at least 80% enzyme activity). Most enzymes showed a steady decline in activity with increasing IL concentrations. *Max activity in IL is reported as the highest fold change of activity in the presence of IL compared to water and the () indicates the IL concentration (v/v) in which that highest activity as achieved. Values less than 1 indicate the enzyme is less active in IL than in water while values greater than 1 indicate the enzyme has increased activity in the presence of IL.
