This study aimed to compare the efficiency of lactase immobilized PCL/SF-based nanofiber and nitrocellulose membrane in preparing lactose-reduced milk. The results showed that the lactase immobilized nitrocellulose membrane had a higher lactose hydrolysis efficiency than the lactase immobilized PCL/SF-based nanofiber.
This study aimed to investigate the activity of lactase immobilized polycaprolactone and silk fibroin (PCL/SF)-based nanofiber and nitrocellulose membrane for the preparation of lactose-reduced milk. PCL/SF-based nanofiber was prepared by using the electrospinning method. The lactase enzyme was immobilized using the physical adsorption method on both surfaces, and then the optimum operating temperature and pH of the immobilized enzymes were determined. The efficiency of the immobilized lactase enzyme was determined in both goat and cow milk. The nutrient content of milk was also analyzed before and after the incubation of nanofiber and membrane with milk. The lactose hydrolysis efficiency of the lactase immobilized nitrocellulose membrane was found to be higher than the lactase immobilized PCL/SF-based nanofiber. Lactose was hydro-lyzed 59% in cow milk and 87% in goat milk by using lactase immobilized nitrocellulose membrane. 42% of lactose was also hydrolyzed in cow milk and 21% was hydrolyzed in goat milk by using lactase immobilized PCL/ SF-based nanofiber. However, the use of these two bioactive surfaces did not change the fat and protein composition of both cow and goat milk. In conclusion, lactase immobilized nitrocellulose membrane was found to be more advantageous in the production of lactose-reduced milk than the lactase immobilized poly-caprolactone/silk fibroin nanofiber.
