β-Galactosidase Immobilization on Chitosan-Hydroxyapatite Complex: Effects of Immobilization Conditions
نویسندگان
چکیده
β-galactosidase simply known as lactase is a significant enzyme in food industry mainly used to hydrolyse lactose in milk. In addition to provide lactose free milk for lactose intolerant people, hydrolysis of lactose avoids textural problems in frozen milk products. β-galactaosidase from different sources has been immobilized on many various type of matrixes including chitosan, alginate, sepabeads and membrane type carriers [2-5].

In this study, immobilization of partially purified almond (Amygdalus communis) β-galactosidase on Con A layered calcium alginate-cellulose beads was investigated. Immobilized β-galactosidase retained 72% of theinitial activity after crosslinking by glutaraldehyde. Both soluble and immobilized enzyme exhibited the samepH and temperature optima at pH 5.5 and 50ºC, respectively. Howev...
متن کاملLow-cost, easy-to-prepare magnetic chitosan microparticles for enzymes immobilization.
Extremely simple procedures for the preparation of magnetic chitosan enzyme carriers have been developed and used for the immobilization of lipase and β-galactosidase as model enzymes. In the first case commercially available magnetite microparticles were entrapped in chitosan gel, while in the second case magnetic iron oxides microparticles were synthesized in chitosan matrix from ferrous sulf...

متن کاملKinetics and Isotherm Studies of the Immobilized Lipase on Chitosan Support
The kinetics and isotherm studies of the immobilized lipase and the mechanism of immobilization on chitosan beads and activated chitosan beads with glutaraldehyde were investigated. The effect of glutaraldehyde on porosity of chitosan was evaluated by FESEM analysis. It was observed that the porosity of the carrier which has activated by glutaraldehyde was substantially increased. The validity ...
