Optimized immobilization of endoglucanase Cel9A onto glutaraldehyde activated chitosan nanoparticles by response surface methodology: The study of kinetic behaviors.

Immobilization of enzyme onto nanoparticles such as chitosan can have biotechnological importance. In this study, chitosan nanoparticles (ChNPs) were prepared by Ionic gelation method and Endoglucanase Cel9A from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldariius (AaCel9A) immobilized on the nanoparticles. The FTIR results showed that the enzymes were immobilized on the ChNPs.
