Enzymatic conversions of starch.

TL;DR: Methods for the enzymatic conversion of starch, involving hydrolases and nonhydrolyzing enzymes, as well as the role of microorganisms producing such enzymes, are surveyed, covering the period from the early 19th century up to 2009.

Carrier free co-immobilization of glucoamylase and pullulanase as combi-cross linked enzyme aggregates (combi-CLEAs)

TL;DR: The successful preparation of carrier free co-immobilized form of glucoamylase and pullulanase using combi-CLEAs method from commercial multi-enzyme preparation OPTIMAX® 7525 HP shows that co-IMobilization enhanced the thermal stability and storage stability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structured fiber supports for gas phase biocatalysis

TL;DR: Under the conditions investigated, the immobilized enzyme showed a high thermostability and could be efficiently used to catalyze hydrolytic and transesterification reactions in continuous mode.

Immobilization of glucoamylase onto novel porous polymer supports of vinylene carbonate and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate.

TL;DR: The immobilized glucoamylase still maintained about 84% of its initial activity, whereas the native enzyme only maintained about 58% of the initial activity after storage for 23 d, and the properties of porous polymer supports had an effect on the activity of the immobilized enzyme.

Peptide generation from casein hydrolysis by immobilised porcine cathepsins

TL;DR: A porcine kidney enzyme extract containing high levels of cathepsins B and L activities has been successfully immobilised onto porous glass beads and showed improved stability when immobilised, exhibiting a half-life of 97.5 h at 30 °C vs 5.6 h for the free enzyme in solution.

Pilot plant production of glucose with glucoamylase immobilized to porous silica.

TL;DR: The immobilized enzyme was immobilized to porous silica and its kinetics and stability were observed with acid‐ and α‐amylase‐hydrolyzed dextrin as feed and it was found to be extremely stable in both laboratory and pilot plant operations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of pore diffusion limitation on dextrin hydrolysis by immobilized glucoamylase.

TL;DR: Data reported here and previously indicate that when dextrin is hydrolyzed in the presence of immobilized glucoamylase, use of a larger average molecular weight substrate leads to lower overall rates of hydrolysis, while the maltose concentration during the bulk of the reaction and the maximum glucose concentration are lower than when the soluble form of the enzyme is employed under the same conditions.
