Abstract

We have developed a technique for the immobilization of inulinase on chitosans with different molecular weights. The acid-soluble mid-molecular-weight (200 kDa) and high-molecular-weight (350 kDa) chitosans are shown to be promising matrices for inulinase adsorption. We assumed that the formation of an inulinase-chitosan matrix complex occurs mainly due to hydrophobic interactions; electrostatic interactions also play an essential role. The enzyme complex with high-molecular-weight chitosan is more stable against the action of UV light and temperature. This allows us to recommend chitosan as a catalyst in industry for the production of fructose from inulin-containing vegetable raw mateials.
