Performance of β-glucosidase immobilized on calcium alginate beads

Performance of immobilized β-glucosidase obtained from almonds (EC 3.2.1.21) on calcium alginate beads was studied by measuring the activity of the enzyme in terms of the generation of pnitrophenol from the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (PNPG).The immobilized enzyme activity was c...

description Performance of immobilized β-glucosidase obtained from almonds (EC 3.2.1.21) on calcium alginate beads was studied by measuring the activity of the enzyme in terms of the generation of pnitrophenol from the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (PNPG).The immobilized enzyme activity was compared with soluble enzyme and was found to decrease by 36.6% albeit with an increased operational stability in terms of easy recovery from the finished product, recurrent use and scale-up in various reactor configurations. The hydrolysis rate data exhibit Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The Michaelis constant were determined using Langmuir linearized plot which obtained vmax and Km as 20.88 μmol/mL.min and 0.0125 mol/L respectively. However, the immobilized β-Glucosidase did not show a sufficiently good operational stability on reuse. Keywords: Immobilized enzyme, enzyme activity, Michaelis-Menten kinetics, β-glucosidase, pnitrophenyl- β-D-glucopyranoside (PNPG), alginate gel
