Crude inulinase from Aspergillus niger (A. niger) NCIM 945 was immobilized on chitosan beads using a two-step covalent immobilization approach. Immobilization conditions were optimized to achieve 86% immobilization efficiency with 83 inulinase activity units/g of wet support. At lower pH values (pH 2.5 and 3) the relative activity of the immobilized enzyme was higher than the free enzyme. Also, thermal stability increased considerably at 50 and 60 C-circle after immobilization on chitosan beads. The K-m values of free and immobilized inulinase were 0.25 and 0.21 mM, respectively and V-max values were close to 0.2 mu M/min/mL. In a continuous packed bed column 5% w/v inulin was completely hydrolyzed at optimized conditions of flow rate (0.1 mL/min) and incubation temperature (60 C-circle). This resulted in volumetric productivity of 68 g/L/h. This simple and efficient covalent immobilization approach has a potential for continuous inulin hydrolysis. (C)) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
