Immobilization of Candida antarctica lipase B on Polystyrene Nanoparticles

Abstract: Summary/AbstractPolystyrene (PS) nanoparticles were prepared via a nanoprecipitation process. The influence of the pH of the buffer solution used during the immobilization process on the loading of Candida antarctica lipase B (Cal-B) and on the hydrolytic activity (hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetate) of the immobilized Cal-B was studied. The pH of the buffer solution has no influence on enzyme loading, while immobilized enzyme activity is very dependent on the pH of adsorption. Cal-B immobilized on polystyren… Show more

“…Candida antarctica Lipase B (CALB) is a very versatile biocatalyst for polyester synthesis, working with various monomers and organic solvents under mild conditions [12,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27]. CALB-catalyzed synthesis of polyesters from green monomers has recently gained increasing popularity.…”

“…Miletic et al [47] also reported that immobilization of enzyme on polystyrene nanoparticles resulted in their increased activity. Thus, enhanced stabilization of nitrogenase at low concentrations of nano-ZnO could be one possible mechanism to explain the observed enhanced activity.…”

“…Thus, regeneration for reuse is often a difficult task and requires high-speed centrifugation for a long time. Non-magnetic nanoparticle carriers include zirconia, silica, polystyrene, chitosan, and polylactic acid (Table 1) [39,[47][48][49][50][51]. When immobilized on a hydrophilic inorganic surface, lipases have poor binding ability because a polypeptide chain "lid" of lipases secludes the catalytic site [52].…”

“…The relative activity of the lipase immobilized on the EDA-GA and EDA-NCS silica carriers was 115% and 107% compared to free enzyme, respectively. Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) was immobilized on polystyrene nanoparticles via adsorption [49]. Polystyrene nanoparticles were synthesized using a nanoprecipitation technique.…”
