Immobilization of Enzymes, Microbial Cells, and Organelles by Inclusion with Photo-Crosslinkable Resins

  • Chapter
Enzyme Engineering

Abstract

This communication deals with the application of photo-crosslinkable resins to inclusion of enzymes, microbial cells and organelles. The method consists of mixing (a) liquid oligomers of suitable photo-crosslinkable resin(s) containing photo-sensitive functional groups, (b) an appropriate initiator, and (c) an enzyme solution or suspension of cells or organelles, followed by illumination with near-ultraviolet light for only a few minutes. This simple and convenient procedure produces tailor-made matrices in which biologically active macromolecules are successfully entrapped.
