lipase from candida antarctica, fixed on macroporous acrylic resin, has been used for the intermediate production of mono- and diolein by hydrolysis of triolein. the effect of altering concentrations of triolein and glycerol and the function of the molecular sieve on the hydrolysis reaction of triolein were investigated. the highest hydrolysis yield was observed for the utmost concentration of ...

penicillin g acylase from e. coli ta1 was immobilized by cross-linked enzyme aggregates (clea), a new method for immobilization. this biocatalyst and commercial immobilized penicillin g acylase (pga-450) were used to study the effect of ph, temperature and substrate concentration on the synthesis of ampicillin from phenyl glycine methyl ester (pgme) and 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-apa). compare...

Background: Immobilization is an approach in industry to improve stability and reusability of urease. The efficiency of this technique depends on the type of membrane and the method of stabilization. Methods: The PEI-modified egg shell membrane was used to immobilize urease by absorption and glutaraldehyde cross-linking methods. The membranes were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared sp...

spirulina platensis, a cyanobacterium of economic important was studied for the tolerance to cadmium. the bioassay studies showed the ec50 value to be 1.53 mg/g. the cyanobacterium was very sensitive to low metal concentration and the productivity was also reduced. the chlorophyll pigments reduced with decreasing the algal biomass. the algal survival rate showed a marked reduction in their surv...

In the present study, we investigated the ability of an immobilized phospholipase A1 (PLA1) in degumming of soybean oil. The enzyme was immobilized by simple adsorption on bentonite without any further modification. The free and immobilized PLA1 were characterized by Fourier Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The immobilizat...
