Enzymatic immobilization has been at the forefront of applied biocatalysis as it enables convenient isolation and reuse of the catalyst if the target reaction is conducted in batch, and it has opened up significant opportunities to conduct biocatalysis in continuous mode. Over the last few years, an array of techniques to immobilize enzymes have been developed, spanning from covalent multipoint attachment to noncovalent electrostatic strategies to rational architecture to suitably orient the enzyme(s). In addition, new materials have been adapted to support biological catalysts. Here, we discuss the advances of the last two years in enzyme immobilization for continuous flow applications.

Lipases, enzymes that perform the hydrolysis of triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol, present a potential paradigm shift in the realms of food and detergent industries. Their enhanced efficiency, energy conservation and environmentally friendly attributes make them promising substitutes for chemical catalysts. Motivated by this prospect, this present study was targeted on the heterologous expression of a lipase gene, employing E.

Herein, we present an efficient approach for developing electrochemical aptasensing interfaces, by "click" postfunctionalization of phenylethynyl-grafted glassy carbon substrates with mixed monolayers containing biorecognition elements and phosphorylcholine zwitterionic groups. Typically, controlling the composition of multicomponent surface layers by grafting from a mixture of aryldiazonium salts is challenging due to differences in their chemical reactivity. Our approach circumvents this issue by employing the electrochemical reduction of a single aryldiazonium salt containing a silyl-protected alkyne group followed by deprotection, to create phenylethynyl monolayers which can subsequently accommodate the concurrent immobilization of bioreceptors and zwitterionic groups through "click" postfunctionalization.

EEfficient methods for isolating N-glycans are essential to understanding the functions and characteristics of the entire N-glycome. Enzymatic release using PNGaseF is the most effective approach for releasing mammalian N-glycans for analytical purposes. However, the use of PNGaseF for preparative N-glycan isolation is precluded due to the enzyme's cost and limited stability.

The M13 phage carries approximately 5 copies of the pIII protein, each of which is capable of displaying a single-chain variable fragment (scFv) that targets a specific antigen. This feature enables the M13 phage to be widely employed in the construction of scFv libraries, thereby facilitating the identification of antibodies with high specificity and affinity for target antigens. In this study, mice were immunized three times with (strain C50041) to induce diverse antibodies.

The binding ability of human serum albumin (HSA) on active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is one of the most important parameters in the early stages of drug discovery. In this study, an immobilized HSA-based tool was developed for the rapid and easy in vitro screening of API binding. The work explored the serious incompleteness in the identification of HSA used for in vitro screening published in the last five years.
