    Abstract:
    Magnetic Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles were prepared through hydrothermal method and coated with silica on the surface to obtain Fe3O4@SiO2 core–shell nanoparticles. After modification with different functional groups including aldehyde, amine and diimide, the nanoparticles were used as carrier for covalent immobilization of lipase. The nanoparticles with aldehyde groups showed highest immobilization yield (52.8%) and efficiency (86.5%). And the immobilization conditions including pH, temperature and the concentration of enzyme were optimized. After immobilization, the K m of lipase was altered from 2.3 to 3.2 mM. The thermal stability and pH stability were enhanced by immobilization at the investigated conditions: pH 5.0–8.0 and temperature 30–70 °C. After 10 batches conversion of 4-Nitrophenyl palmitate into p-Nitrophenol, the immobilized lipase retained over 75% of the original activity. Compared with the commercial lipase Novozym435, the immobilized lipase showed better stability and higher catalytic efficiency. These results demonstrate that the immobilized lipase on the modified Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanoparticles has enhanced stability and reusability, which make lipase of potential interest in a number of industrial applications.
