Title: Entrapment of laurel lipase in chitosan hydrogel beads. Author: Yagar H, Balkan U. Journal: Artif Cells Nanomed Biotechnol; 2017 Aug; 45(5):864-870. PubMed ID: 27181370. Abstract: Laurel seed lipase was entrapped within chitosan beads with ionotropic gelatin method using tripolyphosphate (TPP) as multivalent covalent counter ion. Immobilization yield was 78%. First, optimum immobilization conditions were determined, and morphology of chitosan beads was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Optimum pH and temperature were evaluated as 6.0 and 40 °C, respectively. The immobilized beads saved about 55% of its activities at 60° while saved about 32% at 70 °C for 30 min. Vmax/Km values were determined as 31.75 and 2.87 using olive oil as substrate for immobilized beads and free enzyme, respectively. Immobilized beads showed the activities during 30 days at +4 °C.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
