The Pros And Cons Of Imobilizing Enzyme

This method is usually used carriers comprise natural high molecular substances(such as chitosan, cellulose, agarose, glucose gel, starch, collagen and derivatives)and synthetic polymer materials(such as nylon, Maleic anhydride copolymer), etc.
The covalent binding method advantages in that the bonding force between the enzyme with the carrier is relatively strong, the preparation of the immobilized enzyme typically has good stability and reusability. However, compared with the absorption method, this method is the reaction conditions are strict, with Occurs when a covalent bond, senior facilitated changes in the structure of the protein, leading to enzyme immobilization Energy loss, and substrate specificity and other properties change
