β-Galactosidase Immobilization on Chitosan-Hydroxyapatite Complex: Effects of Immobilization Conditions

Abstract: Preparation of glutaraldehyde activated chitosanhydroxyapatite (chitosan-HAP) microspheres As supports for enzyme immobilization, equal amounts of powdered chitosan and HAP were dissolved in 1M of 100ml acetic acid solution. This solution was added drop wise through a syringe into gently stirred 1.5% w/v sodium tripolyphosphate crosslinking solution. Thereafter, the beads were washed with deionized water until neutrality. For activation, chitosan-HAP beads were incubated

“…The literature reports present various examples of β-galactosidase immobilisation. Among them, κ-carrageenan beads [28], chitosan-hydroxyapatite beads [29], fibres composed of alginate and gelatin hardened with glutaraldehyde [30], cellulose acetate-polymethylmethacrylate membrane [31], and glass beads [32] have been proposed. The utilisation of sodium alginate in the dairy industry context is justified due to the natural source of the main compound and mild gelation conditions.…”

“…Additionally, the negative galactose effect is more substantial in fungal preparations than yeast and bacterial [18]. The available reports, which present encapsulated β-galactosidase into chitosan and alginate-gelatin with glutaraldehyde, can be characterised by K m values such as 3.25 and 16.7 g/L at 35-37 • C, respectively [30,38].…”

“…0.00E+00 A change in enzyme conformation due to overly high or low pH value can cause a loss of enzymatic activity [22]. Therefore, pH is an important parameter in determining the optimum conditions for immobilization.…”

“…Enzymes have an optimal pH range at which they exhibit the highest activity, and deviations from this range can lead to changes in the enzyme's conformation, affecting its catalytic activity (Chen et al, 2013). Besides, the loss in enzymatic activity at highly acidic or alkaline conditions might be also contributed to the alterations in the conformation of the enzyme resulting in a decrease in immobilization efficiency for the crosslinking technique (Cabuk et al, 2014). Moreover, variations in βgalactosidase characteristics, depending on the source (fungi, yeast, or bacteria), contribute to the lack of a consistent optimal pH for the enzyme (Carević et al, 2015).…”
