1. Introduction There is now a wide variety of intra-and extra-cellular enzymes available from organisms growing above 75°C, and having sufficient stability to allow assay well above this temperature. For some of these enzymes, to assay below even 95°C will involve measurement below the optimal growth temperature for the organism. The purpose of this chapter is to cover practical aspects of enz...

Background and Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the optimum conditions for extracting and purifying penicillinase enzyme. The enzyme source was Bacillus licheniformis 6346 obtained from the Iranian Research Organization for Science and Technology. Materials and Methods: B. licheniformis was cultured in a medium containing mineral salts, nitrogen compounds, and cultured carbon sou...

objective: organophosphorus (ops) compounds are widely used in many pesticides, insecticides and chemical nerve agents. these compounds are hazardous for humans and the environment. organophosphate hydrolase (oph) is a homodimeric protein initially isolated from pseudomonas diminuta mg and flavobacterium species. this enzyme is able to degrade a broad spectrum of toxic ops compounds. using immo...

results low concentrations of agnps and short incubation times can have the maximum positive impact on the peroxidase activity, and in the present study the highest activity was seen at a concentration of 40 mg/l and two hours of incubation time. conclusions this study suggests that changes of enzyme activity can occur as a result of the effect of silver nanoparticles on enzyme conformation, in...

Ligninolytic peroxidases are enzymes of biotechnological interest due to their ability to oxidize high redox potential aromatic compounds, including the recalcitrant lignin polymer. However, different obstacles prevent their use in industrial and environmental applications, including low stability towards their natural oxidizing-substrate H2O2. In this work, versatile peroxidase was taken as a ...

Cryogenic activity and stability of benzaldehyde lyase enzyme are achieved in lipidic mesophases, relying on the existence liquid water at subzero temperatures.

Over the past two decades, ionic liquids (ILs) have been widely used for enzymatic conversions of substrates — especially that are insoluble in common organic solvents and water resulting high conversion rates, selectivity, improved enzyme stability, wherein ILs recoverable recyclable. Compared with performance first-generation ILs, researchers recently considerably technological utility enzyme...

One of the most significant tasks for proteomic research and industrial applications, is the preparation of recyclable enzyme reactor. Herein, a novel recyclable enzyme reactor has been developed based on monodispersed spherical poly(quaternary ammonium ionic liquid)s particles immobilized trypsin. A new quaternary ammonium ionic liquids functional monomer was first synthesized. The ionic l...

In this paper, covalent immobilization of beta amylase enzyme on the surface of modified magnetic nano particles (ZnFe2O4@SiO2-NH2) is reported. For doing so, at first, the magnetic nanoparticles of ZnFe2O4 were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method and then tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and 3-aminopropyltriethoxy sil...
