Isolation and immobilization of alkaline protease on mesoporous silica and mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolite materials for improved catalytic properties

چکیده
Alkaline protease from brinjal leaf (Solanum melongena) having milk clotting activity has been purified to 9.44 fold to a final specific activity of 45.71 U/mg. SDS-PAGE of the final preparation revealed a single protein band of approx 14 kDa. Purified enzyme was characterized and was successfully immobilized into the amorphous mesoporous silica (SBA-15) and crystalline mesoporous zeolite (Nano-ZSM-5) using entrapment method. Maximum immobilization of 63.5% and 79.77% was obtained with SBA-15 and Nano-ZSM-5, respectively. This protocol serves as a novel approach for bioprocesses, mainly as milk coagulant for local dairy products and particularly, cheese making, and opens the new dimension of further research and other innovation.

Vacuum residue upgrading by pyrolysis-catalysis procedure over mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolite
A systematic study of two-staged upgrading process of vacuum residue for light fuel production has been carried out in a semi-batch binary reactor apparatus over Y, ZSM-5 and alkaline treated ZSM-5 zeolites. Prepared catalyst samples were characterized with XRD and BET. Density and Viscosity physical properties parameters estimation, as well as GC/SIMDIS analyses were conducted on liquid produc...
متن کاملHigh-Temperature Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Aluminosilicates from ZSM-5 Nanoseeds with Improved Acidic Properties
Ordered mesoporous SBA-15 analogs with different Si/Al ratios were successfully prepared in a two-step process from self-assembly of ZSM-5 nanoseeds at high temperature in mildly acidic media (473 K, pH 3.5). The obtained products were characterized as SAXS, XRD, N₂ sorption, FTIR, TEM, NH₃-TPD, AAS and ICP. The results show that the initial Si/Al molar ratio of ZSM-5 precursors strongly affect...

Catalytic pyrolysis behavior of synthesized microporous catalysts (conventional Zeolite Socony Mobil–5 (C-ZSM-5), highly uniform nanocrystalline ZSM-5 (HUN-ZSM-5) and β-zeolite), Mesoporous catalysts (highly hydrothermally stable Al-MCM-41 with accessible void defects (Al-MCM-41(hhs)), Kanemite-derived folded silica (KFS-16B) and well-ordered Al-SBA-15 (Al-SBA-15(wo)) were studied with waste po...
متن کاملEffect of the Acid Properties on the Diffusion of C7 Hydrocarbons in UL-ZSM-5 Materials
1. Introduction Mesoporous UL-ZSM-5 materials have zeolitic structure in the form of nano-particles inter-grown in the walls of the amorphous wormhole-like aluminosilicate mesoporous precursor, and were shown to exhibit an intermediate acidity between the parent mesoporous precursor and ZSM-5 zeolite [1,2]. These materials combine the advantages of both, i.e., microporous crystalline zeolites (...
متن کاملZSM-5 zeolite single crystals with b-axis-aligned mesoporous channels as an efficient catalyst for conversion of bulky organic molecules.
The relatively small and sole micropores in zeolite catalysts strongly influence the mass transfer and catalytic conversion of bulky molecules. We report here aluminosilicate zeolite ZSM-5 single crystals with b-axis-aligned mesopores, synthesized using a designed cationicamphiphilic copolymer as a mesoscale template. This sample exhibits excellent hydrothermal stability. The orientation of the...
