Abstract:

Immobilized enzymes are widely used for variety of applications. Based on the type of application, the method of immobilization and support material can be selected.The immobilized enzymes can be separated from the reaction mixture and reused and also immobilized in order to prevent the enzyme from being exposed to harsh conditions. High temperature, surfactants, and oxidizing agents used in food industry, pharmaceutical industry bioremediation, detergent industry. Enzyme immobilization improves the operational stability and is also due to the increased enzyme loading which causes the controlled diffusion. Several hundreds ofenzymes are immobilized and used for various industries.
