چکیده

Stabilization of enzymes has become a major focus in the quest to improve the activity, sustainability and recyclability of enzymes for their successful integration into both industry and medicine. Here, we describe the kinetic and thermodynamic stabilization of a variety of enzymes in the presence of cationic multifunctional polymeric nanoparticles.

The immobilization of laccase enzyme from Trametes versicolor on the surface of porous zinc oxide nanoparticles and studying features of the immobilized enzyme

The laccase enzyme is the largest group of Oxidoreductase enzymes and is capable of oxidizing a wide range of organic substrates to water along with molecular oxygen resuscitation. ZnO nanoparticles are known for their specific properties such as chemical stability, high electrochemical coupling rates, and wide range of absorption of radiation as multifunctional compounds. In this study, ZnO po...

The Direct Electrochemical Investigation of Redox Enzymes

Even though the use of enzymes as useful analytical reagents when immobilized onto a transducer such as an electrochemical device has been reported in the literature for nearly two decades, the direct, i.e. unmediated electrochemistry of enzymes is, nevertheless, a rather recent development. Efforts will be made to introduce the fundamental basis for protein-surface interactions with emphas...

Kinetic and Thermodynamic Studies on the Reactivity of Hydroxyl Radicals in Wastewater Treatment by Advanced Oxidation Processes

The removal of dyes from wastewater, is one of the major environmental concerns due to their high color density, and they are toxic at even low concentrations. Adsorption process by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) has been found to be a more effective method than classical methods for treating dye-containing wastewater. This research, is to investigate the decolorization abilities of az...
