Characterization, Analysis, and Application of Fabricated Fe3O4-Chitosan-Pectinase Nanobiocatalyst

TL;DR: The investigation on fabrication of Fe3O4-chitosan-pectinase nanobiocatalyst was performed by covalently binding the pectinase onto carboxyl group activated chitOSan-coated magnetic nanoparticles (CMNPs) to monitor their improved activity, the pH, temperature, reusability, storage ability, and kinetic studies were established.

Immobilization–stabilization of an α-galactosidase from Thermus sp. strain T2 by covalent immobilization on highly activated supports: Selection of the optimal immobilization strategy

TL;DR: The best stability was obtained by immobilization on glutaraldehyde activated supports, which retained over 90% of initial activity and improved the optimal temperature from 65 °C (soluble enzyme) to 70 °C.
