Abstract.
The immobilization of diastase onto acid-treated bentonite surface has been investigated and the relative activity of immobilized enzyme has been examined under varying experimental conditions. The effect of various factors such as concentration of enzyme solution, pH and temperature of immobilization medium, presence of salts and organic solvents has been observed on both the extent of immobilized enzyme and its relative activity. Various thermodynamic parameters were also evaluated.
