TL;DR: The HP-MOFs were stable over a wide pH range and met the catalysis conditions of most enzymes and the as-prepared hierarchical micro/mesoporous MOFs with mesoporous defects showed a superior adsorption capacity towards enzymes.
Abstract: Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have drawn extensive research interest as candidates for enzyme immobilization owing to their tunable porosity, high surface area, and excellent chemical/thermal stability. Herein, we report a facile and universal strategy for enzyme immobilization using highly stable hierarchically porous metal–organic frameworks (HP-MOFs). The HP-MOFs were stable over a wide pH range (pH = 2–11 for HP-DUT-5) and met the catalysis conditions of most enzymes. The as-prepared hierarchical micro/mesoporous MOFs with mesoporous defects showed a superior adsorption capacity towards enzymes. The maximum adsorption capacity of HP-DUT-5 for glucose oxidase (GOx) and uricase was 208 mg g−1 and 225 mg g−1, respectively. Furthermore, we constructed two multi-enzyme biosensors for glucose and uric acid (UA) by immobilizing GOx and uricase with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on HP-DUT-5, respectively. These sensors were efficiently applied in the colorimetric detection of glucose and UA and showed good sensitivity, selectivity, and recyclability.

TL;DR: In this article, a soybean α-amylase from soybeans was immobilized on two different matrices, Chitosan beads and Amberlite MB-150.
Abstract: α-Amylase from soybeans was immobilized on two different matrices, Chitosan beads and Amberlite MB-150. Maximum immobilization of 62% and 70.4% was obtained with Chitosan and Amberlite MB-150, respectively. The optimum pH obtained was 8.0 and 7.0 for the α-amylase immobilized on Chitosan beads and Amberlite MB-150, respectively; free enzyme showed an optimum pH of 5.5. The optimum temperature for both free and Chitosan immobilized enzymes was 70 °C whereas it was 75 °C for enzyme immobilized on Amberlite MB-150. α-Amylase immobilized on Chitosan showed an apparent K m of 4 mg/mL, whereas Amberlite immobilized enzyme showed an apparent K m of 2.5 mg/mL. The immobilized enzyme showed a high operational stability by retaining 38% and 58% of initial activity after 10 uses for Chitosan and Amberlite, respectively. The easy accessibility of soybean α-amylase, the ease of its immobilization on low-cost matrices, increased stability upon immobilization make it a suitable product for future applications. Both the matrices used for enzyme immobilization are non-toxic, cheap, renewable, biodegradable and have importance in food, cosmetics, biomedical, or pharmaceuticals applications.
