Studies on kinetic parameters and stability of aminoacylase in non-conventional media.

Catalytic properties and conformational stability of aminoacylase (N-acylamino acid amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.

Continuous production of ethanol using yeast cells immobilized in preformed cellulose beads.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells were immobilized on preformed cellulose beads by adsorption. The fermentation capacity of the immobilized yeast cells was found to be practically independent of the hydrogen ion concentration between pH 3.1 and 6.

Immobilization, characterization, and laboratory-scale application of bovine liver arginase.

Arginase isolated from beef liver was covalently attached to a polyacrylamide bead support bearing carboxylic groups activated by a water-soluble carbodiimide. The most favorable carbodiimide was N-cyclohexyl-N'-(methyl-2-p-nitrophenyl-2-oxoethyl) aminopropyl carbodiimide methyl bromide, but for practical purposes, N-cyclohexyl-N'-morpholinoethyl carbodiimide methyl tosylate was used. The optimal conditions for the coupling procedure were determined.

Coenzyme production using immobilized enzymes. III. Immobilization of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from bakers' yeast.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose-6-phosphate: NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.

Immobilized triosephosphate isomerases. A comparative study.

Pig muscle triosephosphate isomerase was covalently attached to polyacrylamide and silica-based supports possessing carboxylic or aldehyde functional groups or activated with p-benzoquinone. A silica-based support activated with p-benzoquinone proved to be the most advantageous. There were no profound alterations in the catalytic properties as a result of the immobilization.
