Abstract: | Purified inulinase (inulase, 2,1-β-d-fructan fructanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.7) of Kluyveromyces fragilis has been immobilized on 2-aminoethyl-cellulose by treatment with 2% glutaraldehyde in 0.05 m phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, for 2 h at room temperature. The immobilized enzyme preparation had 39.3 units inulinase activity per gram dried matrix, with 53.4% recovery yield of activity, and showed good operational stability in the presence of substrate, inulin or the tuber extract of Jerusalem artichoke. Optimum pH and temperature were 5.5 and 45°C, respectively. In a batch reactor, the conversion was 90% () and 34 mg d-fructose per ml was produced from the artichoke tuber extract by the immobilized inulinase in 20 h. In column reactor packed with 28 ml immobilized enzyme, the following conditions were found to be optimal: height/diameter ratio of column, 10.3; space time, 3.8 h; temperature, 40°C. Operation under these conditions gave 90% conversion of a 7% inulin solution and the productivity was 102 mmol l?1 h?1. |
