Isothiocyanato‐substituted hydrophilic polymer beads for immobilization of enzymes

Abstract: SynopsisStyrene-glycidylmethacrylate-divinylbenzene resin beads could be converted to highly hydrophilic resin beads by acid treatment. These resin beads could be modified with isothiocyanato (NCS) groups quite easily using a Friedel-Crafts reaction and a subsequent nucleophilic reaction with KSCN. The resin beads substituted with NCS groups were useful as supports to immobilize enzymes, because they were not only hydrophilic but also bind proteins covalently. The enzymes immobilized onto the resin beads showe… Show more

“…Medical diagnostics rely on immobilized proteins since most immunoassays employ immobilized antibodies or enzymes. Protein immobilization can be accomplished in several ways including adsorption onto solid supports, entrapment into membranes and films, and covalent binding to carriers such as polymeric beads. , Covalent binding can be performed in many ways; solid supports often possess hydroxy, amino, amide, and carboxy groups that must be activated before they are able to directly react with proteins. In our approach, the immobilization was done through interaction of the terminal amino group of the protein, e.g., concanavalin A or Protein G with the epoxy groups of the latex particles bound to the wall of the fused silica capillary.…”

“…A specific antibody bound to a support allows the capture and detection of low-abundance proteins. The most commonly used protein for binding monoclonal and polyclonal IgGs is protein G isolated from Streptococci bacterium . Immunoglobulin G often has to be captured and preconcentrated from solutions containing serum albumin protein.…”

“…8 The presence of isothiocyanate groups in the resin (NEG-12-NCS) was confirmed by the specific absorption at 2100 cm-' in the infrared spectrum using a IR440 spectrophotometer (Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan). As a carrier of isothiocyanate groups, we also used microporous hydrophilic resins, NEG-Ill (copolymer of styrene, divinylbenzene, and glycerylmethacrylate, mean pore radius 51 A), and hydrophobic resins [poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene)], S-X4 (exclusion limit of pores, 1400 daltons; Bio-Rad, Richmond, CA), and HP-20 (mean pore radius, 150 A; Mitsubishi Chemical Industries, Tokyo).…”

“…Hydrophilic supports also are considered important for maintaining the catalytic activity of immobilized enzymes, , but efficient immobilization of enzymes may require supports with a specifically tailored hydrophilic−hydrophobic balance . Moreover, support polarity has been shown to impact the catalytic activity (perhaps by influencing the diffusion of substrates and products , ) and even enantioselectivity of immobilized enzymes.…”
