This work aims to achieve the co-immobilization of laccase and 2,2-binamine-di-3-ethylbenzothiazolin-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) to improve removal capability of the biocatalyst for pollutants while avoiding potential pollution caused by ABTS. The laccase was immobilized on magnetic chitosan nanoparticles modified with amino-functionalized ionic liquid containing ABTS (MACS-NIL) based on Cu ion chelation (MACS-NIL-Cu-lac). The carrier was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, x-ray diffraction and etc., and electron paramagnetic resonance confirmed the mediator molecule ABTS on the carrier could also play the role of electron transmission. MACS-NIL-Cu-lac presented relatively high immobilization capacity, enhanced activity (1.7-fold that of free laccase), improved pH and temperature adaptability, and increased thermal and storage stability. The removal performance assay found that MACS-NIL-Cu-lac had a good removal efficiency with 100.0 % for 2,4-dichlorophenol in water at 25 °C, even when the concentration reached 50 mg/L. Reusability study showed that after six catalytic runs, the removal efficiency of 2,4-dichlorophenol by MACS-NIL-Cu-lac could still reach 93.2 %. Additionally, MACS-NIL-Cu-lac exhibited higher catalytic efficiencies with 100.0 %, 70.5 % and 93.3 % for bisphenol A, indole, and anthracene, respectively. The high catalytic performance in pure water system obtained by the novel biocatalyst co-immobilizing laccase and electron mediator ABTS showed greater practical application value.

The environmental persistence of pharmaceuticals represents a significant threat to aquatic ecosystems and human health, while limitations in conventional wastewater treatment methods underscore the urgent need for innovative and eco-friendly degradation strategies. Photobiocatalytic approaches provide a promising solution for the effective degradation of pharmaceutical contaminants by harnessing the synergistic effects of both photocatalysts and biocatalysts. In this study, we developed a photobiocatalytic composite by co-immobilizing laccase enzyme and zinc oxide nanoparticles on bacterial cellulose synthesized from orange peel waste.

Protein immobilization using water-soluble ionic metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) acting as porous spacers has recently been demonstrated as a potent strategy for the preparation of biocatalysts. In this article, we describe a mixed-protein approach to achieve biocomposites with adjustable enzyme contents and excellent immobilization efficiencies, in a systematic and well-controlled manner. Self-assembly of either cationic or anionic MOPs with bovine serum albumin or egg white lysozyme combined with enzymes (alkaline phosphatase, laccase or cytochrome c) led to solid-state catalysts with a high retention of enzyme activity.

The efficient and green removal technology of refractory organics such as atrazine in water has been an important topic of research in water treatment. A novel membrane composite biocatalyst Lac-HBT-Pd/BC as prepared for the first time by co-immobilizing laccase, mediator 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT) and metal Pd on functionalized bacterial cellulose (BC) to investigate the removal of atrazine and degradation of its intermediates under mild ambient conditions. It was found that atrazine could be completely degraded in 5 h by the catalysis of Lac-HBT-Pd/BC, and the removal rate of degradation intermediates from atrazine was about 85% after continuous catalysis, which achieved deep degradation of atrazine.

Co-immobilization of laccase and mediator 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) for wastewater treatment could simultaneously achieve the reusability of laccase and avoid secondary pollution caused by the toxic ABTS. Herein, Fe-induced mineralization was proposed to co-immobilize laccase and ABTS into a metal-organic framework (ZIF-8) within 30 min. Immobilized laccase (Lac@ZIF-8-Fe) prepared at a 1:1 mass ratio of Fe to Zn exhibited enhanced catalytic efficiency (2.

A novel, dual-faced, and hierarchical type of Janus hybrid structures (JHSs) was assembled through an in situ growing of lipase@cobalt phosphate sheets on the laccase@copper phosphate sponge-like structures. The chemical and structural information of prepared JHSs was investigated by Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The catalytic activity, storage stability, and reusability of JHSs were then investigated.
