Abstract: | Neutral β-galactosidase from Kluyveromyces fragilis was immobilized on silanized porous glass modified by glutaraldehyde binding, with retention of more than 90% of its activity. Marked shifts in optimum pH (from 7.0 to 6.0) and temperature (from 35°C to 50°C) of the solid-phase enzyme were observed together with high catalytic activity and reasonable stability at wider pH and temperature ranges than those of the free enzyme. Highly efficient lactose saccharification (86–90%) in whey permeate was achieved both in a batch process and in a recycling packed-bed bioreactor. |
