Immobilization of Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase onto three dimensional- hydrophobic and two dimensional- hydrophilic supports: A comparative study.

Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) degrades starch into cyclodextrin via enzymatic activity. In this study, we immobilize CGTase from Thermoanaerobacter sp. on two supports, namely graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) consisting of short stacks of graphene nanoparticles and a calcium-based two-dimensional metal organic framework (Ca-TMA).
