Preparation of immobilized lipase on magnetic nanoparticles dialdehyde starch

Dialdehyde starch (DAS) is a kind of modified starch which contains many active aldehyde groups and has good biocompatibility. In this study, magnetic dialdehyde starch nanoparticles were successfully used to immobilize lipase. The lipase was immobilized onto magnetic nanoparticles by using DAS instead of glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker. The parameters like DAS dosage, enzyme concentration and immobilization time were optimized. Enzymatic properties studies exhibited that after DAS cross-linking, the storage stability of the immobilized enzyme reached 82.5%, and the recycling rate reached 53.6%, whereas in case of glutaraldehyde cross linker, it was 79.4% and 46.8%, the former also exhibited better stability and durability. Compared with the free enzyme, the immobilized enzyme indicated higher acid-base tolerance and thermal stability, and had good enzymatic properties. Magnetic dialdehyde starch nanoparticles may have application prospects as an excellent enzyme carrier, which provides a reference for the preparation of other immobilized enzymes with excellent performance.
