Abstract: | AbstractThree new, water-soluble, N-modified chitosan derivatives containing poly(ethylene glycol), dextran or inulin side chains were used as spacers for enzyme immobilization on a natural silk carrier. Amylolytic enzymes Maltogenase L and Promozyme D2, lipolytic enzyme Resinase HT and a complex of proteolytic enzymes from Streptomyces flavus 197 were immobilized. The activity of the immobilized enzymes and their stability during storage were similar to that obtained with synthetic polyamine—poly(ethylene imine) as a spacer. High operational stability of co-immobilized amylolytic enzymes Maltogenase L and Promozyme D2 in a continuous flow mini-reactor was demonstrated. |
