The optimum pH of the enzyme shifted from 6 to 5 and the optimum temperature of enzyme activity changed from 50 to 55°C. K_m values were 6.7 mM for soluble enzyme and 10 mM for immobilized enzyme. The heat stability of the enzyme was improved by immobilization. Immobilized enzyme retained about 76% of the original activity after 40 days of storage at room temperature (30±2°C).

Immobilization of Kluyveromyces marxianus cells containing inulinase activity in open pore gelatin matrix: 1. Preparation and enzymatic properties

Kluyveromyces marxianus cells with inulinase (2,1-β-d-fructan fructanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.7) activity have been immobilized in open pore gelatin pellets with retention of > 90% of the original activity. The open pore gelatin pellets with entrapped yeast cells were obtained by selective leaching out of calcium alginate from the composite matrix, followed by crosslinking with glutaraldehyde. Enzymatic properties of the gelatin-entrapped cells were studied and compared with those of the free cells. The immobilization procedure did not alter the optimum pH of the enzymatic preparation; the optimum for both free and immobilized cells was pH 6.0. The optimum temperature of inulin hydrolysis was 10°C higher for immobilized cells. Activation energies for the reaction with the free and immobilized cells were calculated to be 6.35 and 2.26 kcal mol^?1, respectively. K_m values were 8 mM inulin for the free cells and 9.52 mM for the immobilized cells. The thermal stability of the enzyme was improved by immobilization. Free and immobilized cells showed fairly stable activities between pH 4 and 7, but free cell inulinase was more labile at pH values below 4 and above 7 compared to the immobilized form. There was no loss of enzyme activity of the immobilized cells on storage at 4°C for 30 days. Over the same period at room temperature only 6% of the original activity was lost.

Immobilization of thermostable exo-inulinase from mutant thermophilic Aspergillus tamarii-U4 using kaolin clay and its application in inulin hydrolysis

In this study, attempts were made to immobilize purified exo-inulinase from mutant thermophic Aspergillus tamarii-U4 onto Kaolinite clay by covalent bonding cross-linked with glutaraldehyde with an immobilization yield of 66% achieved. The free and immobilized inulinases were then characterized and characterization of the enzymes revealed that temperature and pH optima for the activity of the free and immobilized enzymes were both 65?°C and pH 4.5 respectively. The free inulinase completely lost its activity after incubation at 65?°C for 6 h while the immobilized inulinase retained 16.4% of its activity under the same condition of temperature and incubation time. The estimated kinetic parameters K_m and V_max for the free inulinase as estimated from Lineweaver-Burk plots were 0.39?mM and 4.21?µmol/min for the free inulinase and 0.37?mM and 4.01?µmol/min for the immobilized inulinase respectively. Inulin at 2.5% (w/v) and a flow rate of 0.1?mL was completely hydrolysed for 10?days at 60?°C in a continuous packed bed column and the operational stability of the system revealed that the half-life of the immobilized inulinase was 51?days. These properties make the immobilized exo-inulinase from Aspergillus tamarii-U4 a potential candidate for the production of fructose from inulin hydrolysis.

Immobilization of cellulase from newly isolated strain Bacillus subtilis TD6 using calcium alginate as a support material

Bacillus subtilis TD6 was isolated from Takifugu rubripes, also known as puffer fish. Cellulase from this strain was partially purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation up to 80% saturation, entrapped in calcium alginate beads, and finally characterized using CMC as the substrate. For optimization, various parameters were observed, including pH maximum, temperature maximum, sodium alginate, and calcium chloride concentration. pH maximum of the enzyme showed no changes before and after immobilization and remained stable at 6.0. The temperature maximum showed a slight increase to 60 °C. Two percent sodium alginate and a 0.15 M calcium chloride solution were the optimum conditions for acquisition of enzyme with greater stability. K (m) and V (max) values for the immobilized enzyme were slightly increased, compared with those of free enzyme, 2.9 mg/ml and 32.1 μmol/min/mL, respectively. As the purpose of immobilization, reusability and storage stability of the enzyme were also observed. Immobilized enzyme retained its activity for a longer period of time and can be reused up to four times. The storage stability of entrapped cellulase at 4 °C was found to be up to 12 days, while at 30 °C, the enzyme lost its activity within 3 days.

Sequential immobilization of urease to glycidyl methacrylate grafted sodium alginate

Objective of this study is to realize appropriate enzyme immobilization onto a suitable support material and to develop a model which enables reactions catalyzed with different enzymes arranged in order. Thence, this model was potential for developing a multi-enzyme system. The reactions need more than one enzyme can be realized using immobilized form of them and the enzymes will be in one support at wanted activities. In this study, sodium alginate was used as immobilization material and glycidyl methacrylate was grafted onto sodium alginate. Thus reactive epoxy groups were added to sodium alginate which also has carboxyl groups. Average molecular weight of sodium alginate was determined using Ubbelohde viscosimetri. The molecular mass of sodium alginate was calculated as 15,900 Da. Graft polymerization was made in two steps. Firstly, sodium alginate was activated with benzophenone using UV-light at 254 nm. Secondly, glycidyl methacrylate was grafted under UV-light at 365 nm onto activated sodium alginate. Grafted glycidyl methacrylate was determined gravimetric and titrimetric. Additional groups after grafting were showed with FT-IR spectrum. 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimetylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide was used for immobilization urease from carboxyl groups at pH 5.0. Suitable 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimetylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide/–COOH ratio was found 1/10 and immobilized product activity was 197 U/g support. Reaction medium pH was 8.0 for immobilization from epoxy group. Optimum immobilization reaction time was found as 2 h and immobilized product activity was 285 U/g support. Sequential immobilization of urease to glycidyl methacrylate grafted sodium alginate was made from –COOH and epoxy groups, respectively.

A feasible enzymatic process for D-tagatose production by an immobilized thermostable L-arabinose isomerase in a packed-bed bioreactor

To develop a feasible enzymatic process for d-tagatose production, a thermostable l-arabinose isomerase, Gali152, was immobilized in alginate, and the galactose isomerization reaction conditions were optimized. The pH and temperature for the maximal galactose isomerization reaction were pH 8.0 and 65 degrees C in the immobilized enzyme system and pH 7.5 and 60 degrees C in the free enzyme system. The presence of manganese ion enhanced galactose isomerization to tagatose in both the free and immobilized enzyme systems. The immobilized enzyme was more stable than the free enzyme at the same pH and temperature. Under stable conditions of pH 8.0 and 60 degrees C, the immobilized enzyme produced 58 g/L of tagatose from 100 g/L galactose in 90 h by batch reaction, whereas the free enzyme produced 37 g/L tagatose due to its lower stability. A packed-bed bioreactor with immobilized Gali152 in alginate beads produced 50 g/L tagatose from 100 g/L galactose in 168 h, with a productivity of 13.3 (g of tagatose)/(L-reactor.h) in continuous mode. The bioreactor produced 230 g/L tagatose from 500 g/L galactose in continuous recycling mode, with a productivity of 9.6 g/(L.h) and a conversion yield of 46%.

Oxalate decarboxylase, an oxalate degradation enzyme used for medical diagnosis and decreasing the oxalate level in the food or paper industry, was covalently immobilized to Eupergit C. Different immobilization parameters, including ratio of enzyme to support, ammonia sulfate concentration, pH, and incubation time, were optimized. Under the condition of enzyme/support ratio at 1:20, pH 9, with 1.5?mol/L (NH(4))(2)SO(4), room temperature, and shaking at 30?rpm for 24?hr, activity recovery of immobilized Oxdc reached 90% with an apparent specific activity of 0.44?U/mg support. The enzymatic properties of immobilized Oxdc were investigated and compared with those of the soluble enzyme. Both shared a similar profile of optimum conditions; the optimum pH and temperature for soluble and immobilized Oxdc were 3.5 and 50°C, respectively. The immobilized enzyme was more stable at lower pH and higher temperatures. The kinetic parameters for soluble and immobilized enzyme were also determined.

Performance of an immobilized recombinant leucine aminopeptidase after storage in ethanol–water solution

Immobilized enzymes offer different benefits such as the feasibility to be reused for reproducible bioprocesses. The challenge is to establish the appropriate storage conditions that allow the maintenance of their properties for long periods. In this study, we immobilized a recombinant leucine aminopeptidase (I-rLAP) on a siliceous support synthesized from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) activated with glutaraldehyde to evaluate its residual activity after storage in 20% v/v ethanol and sodium azide solutions at 4 and 25?°C. The characterization of the support by X-ray diffraction (XRD), diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) and field emission probe microanalyzer (EPMA) was consistent with previous characterization reports of silica gel matrices. Particle size ≤420?μm exhibited a suitable performance that avoided high backpressure into the columns and increased the amount of immobilized enzyme. I-rLAP recovered up to 90% of the applied activity after 64 days of storage at 4 and 25?°C in 20% v/v ethanol. Conversely, no effect was observed when the insoluble enzyme was stored in sodium azide. Activity recovery of I-rLAP after storage in ethanol solution could be related to the formation of disulfide bonds as suggested by free thiol analyses. Reverse phase-ultra performance liquid chromatography (RP-UPLC) and Mass Spectrometry confirmed that the immobilized enzyme maintained its specificity to remove N-terminal methionine from a recombinant hormone. The obtained results indicate that this methodology constitutes an alternative for bioprocesses involving long-term storage of immobilized enzymes.     

Immobilization of glucansucrase for the production of gluco-oligosaccharides from Leuconostoc mesenteroides

Glucansucrase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides was immobilized in 1?% (w/v) with sodium alginate to produce oligosaccharides. Glucansucrase gave three activity bands of approx. 240, 178, and 165?kDa after periodic acid-Schiff staining with sucrose. The immobilized enzyme had 40?% activity after ten batch reactions at 30?°C and 75?% activity after a month of storage at 4?°C, which is six times more stable than the free enzyme. Immobilized enzyme was more stable at lower (3.5?4.5) and higher (6.5?7.0) pH ranges and higher temperatures (35?40?°C) compared with the free enzyme. Immobilized and free glucansucrase were employed in the acceptor reaction with maltose and each produced gluco-oligosaccharide ranging from trisaccharides to homologous pentasaccharides.
