In the research procedure, Fungi was isolated from soil samples contaminated with lead. Only one of the isolates fungi, identified as Aspergillus terreus, presented good catalytic activity in the reduction of acetophenone. The biomass was grown submerged in broth culture, inoculated with 1,1 x 103 (spores/mL of malt extract) and maintained at 30?C under orbital agitation. Morphological differences and catalytic activity were evaluated in function of the orbit of agitation during the growth process. The catalytic activity in terms of conversion of acetophenone and enantiomeric excess (S), ee_S, in 1-feniletanol, was determinate in conjunction with the growth curve of the fungus. The results were used to construct a graphic showing the variation of quality of the catalyst, according to age of biomass. Apart from acetophenone were tested o-Xacetophenone, p-Xacetophenone and m-Xacetophenone (X = methyl, methoxy, nitro, fluorine, bromine). For reaction with 24 hours growing cells (30?C; 150rpm/r = 50mm), the conversions were between 27% and 97% with ee_S between 41% and 83%. For reactions with cells in suspension in buffered medium (pH = 4.5 ? 6,5) was decrease in activity/selectivity at pH above 5.5. The kinetics of conversion was evaluated for biomasses with different ages and for various concentrations of acetophenone. An amount between 100mg and 200mg of biomass (dry mass) with 168 hours of culture can convert 100mg of acetophenone to 1(S)-feniletanou ee_S (91%) with 98% yield in 72 hours of reaction (93% at 48 hours). The development of this process described above, constitutes the body of this thesis. / O objetivo desta pesquisa ? o isolamento, a sele??o e a avalia??o de um microorganismo com atividade biocatalisadora na biorredu??o estereoseletiva de cetonas pro-quirais. No procedimento de investiga??o, fungos foram isolados de amostras de solo contaminadas com chumbo. Apenas um dos fungos isolados, identificado geneticamente como Aspergillus terreus, apresentou boa atividade catal?tica na redu??o de acetofenona. A biomassa foi cultivada submersa no caldo de cultura, inoculado com 1,1x103 (esporos/mL de extrato de malte) e mantido a 30? sob agita??o orbital. Diferen?as morfol?gicas e de atividade catal?tica foram avaliadas em fun??o da ?rbita de agita??o durante o crescimento. A atividade catal?tica, em termos de convers?o da acetofenona e do excesso enantiom?rico (S), ee_S, no 1-feniletanol, foi determinada em conjunto com a curva de crescimento do fungo. Os resultados foram usados para construir um gr?fico mostrando a varia??o da qualidade do catalisador em fun??o da idade da biomassa. Al?m de acetofenona, foram testadas o-Xacetofenona, p-Xacetofenona e m-Xacetofenona (X=metil, metoxi, nitro, fl?or, bromo). Para 24 horas de rea??o com c?lulas em crescimento (30?C; 150rpm/r = 50mm), as convers?es ficaram entre 94 e 100%, com ee_S ? 98% para acetofenona e para acetofenonas orta ou meta substitu?das. Com substituintes na posi??o para, a convers?o ficou entre 27% e 97%, com ee_S entre 41% e 83%. Para rea??es com c?lulas em suspens?o em meio tamponado (pH = 4,5 ? 6,5), houve queda na atividade/seletividade em pH acima de 5,5. A cin?tica de convers?o foi avaliada para biomassas com idades distintas e para v?rias concentra??es de acetofenona. Uma quantidade entre 100mg e 200mg de biomassa (massa seca) com 168 horas de cultura, pode converter 100mg de acetofenona a 1(S)-feniletanol (ee_S 91%), com 98% de rendimento em 72 horas de rea??o (93% em 48 horas). O desenvolvimento desse processo, acima descrito, constitui o corpo desta Tese.
