α-galactosidase purified from Acinetobacter sp. was immobilized in four different matricesCalcium alginate, Gelatin, Agarose and k-Carrageenan. On comparative analysis, k-Carrageenan immobilized enzyme showed highest immobilization yield of 68% and storage stability for 30 days. Gelatin showed an immobilization yield of 57%. Soluble enzyme led to decrease of 84% in raffinose and 76% in stachyos...

Biocatalytic syntheses often require unfavorable conditions, which can adversely affect enzyme stability. Consequently, improving the stability of biocatalysts is needed, and this achieved by immobilization. In study, we aimed to compare soluble immobilized transaminases from different species. A cysteine in a consensus sequence was converted single aldehyde formylglycine-generating for directe...

In this study, urease was isolated from Cicer arietinum and immobilized in calcium alginate beads. Various parameters, such as effect of thermal stability, temperature, optimum pH and pH stability, substrate concentration, reuse and storage stability were investigated and the results of the investigation were compared with the soluble enzyme. The activity yield of immobilization was calculated ...

conclusions our findings clearly indicate a synergistic effect of waterpipe smoke, immobilization and darkness stress on serum ck levels, whereas serum alp levels of experimental groups have shown no significant synergism for the mentioned factors. results the results indicated enhanced serum ck and alp levels in all groups compared with control (p < 0.05). also, there was a significant differe...

Extracellular laccase was produced by Trametes versicolor IBL-04 using corn cobs as a substrate under pre-optimized culture conditions. A 64kDa laccase enzyme was purified and immobilized on calcium alginate beads using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking reagent. Maximum enzyme immobilization efficiency (89%) was observed with 2-mm calcium-alginate beads that were developed using 4% (w/v) sodium...

Trypsin, chymotrypsin, penicillin G acylase and ficin extract have been stabilized by immobilization on glyoxyl agarose, adding different aliphatic compounds bearing a primary amine group during the immobilization: ethyl amine, butyl hexyl (at concentrations ranging from 0 to 20 mM) octyl (from 10 analyze their effects immobilized enzyme stability. As expected, presence of amines reduced intens...

Feruloyl esterases are a class of enzymes that can be used as biocatalysts for the modification of bioactive hydroxycinnamic acids. In industry, enzyme immobilization is often necessary to stabilize the enzymes and to allow their reuse. Mesoporous materials have become a popular immobilization support due to advantages such as large surface area, high mechanical stability and the possibility of...

The use of polymers as supports for enzyme immobilization is a strategy that enables to remove the enzymes from a chemical reaction and improve their efficiency in catalytic processes. In this work, cellulose triacetate (CTA) was used for physical adsorption of phospholipase Lecitase ultra (LU). CTA is more hydrophobic than cellulose, shows good performance in the lipases immobilization being a...

Chitosan is an attractive natural biopolymer from renewable resources with the presence of reactive amino and hydroxyl functional groups in its structure. Due to the good biocompatibility of chitosan, it can be used in magnetic-field assisted drug delivery, enzyme or cell immobilization and many other industrial applications. In the past decade, nanotechnology has been a considerable research i...
