Abstract: | Summary A laccase of the basidiomyceteTrametes versicolor was immobilized on porous glass beads that were activated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and glutaraldehyde. The support immobilized 100% of the enzyme, whereupon 90% of the original activity was retained. After immobilization, the enzyme was active in a wider pH and temperature range, and its heat stability and reuse were greatly improved compared to those of the free laccase. The immobilized enzyme was found reusable in treating different substrates, either recycled alone or in a sequential order. |
