Abstract
Dacron (polyethylenetherephthalate) in the form of plates if proposed as a maxtrix to immobilized proteins. A three-step procedure is used to activate this support and to fix the protein on it. Amyloglucosidase was used as a model to test this method, and it showed advantages compared to the powder form of Dacron.
