Enzymes have found widespread in various
scientific and technical fields, including chemistry, biochemistry, medicine,
pharmaceutical science and industry [1]. Although enzymes have unique
properties, such as high catalytic activity, reaction specificity, stability,
selectivity, low toxicity and water solubility, their efficient use is
very limited due to their innate disadvantages associated with instability
during storage, loss of catalytic activity after implementation
into the reaction, high production cost and lack of recovery from reaction
medium, substrate- and product-inhibitions [2]. In order to overcome these limitations,
several immobilization approaches have been developed.
In
this study, maltase-copper phosphate hybrid nanoflowers
(HNFs) synthesized and at the same time formation mecanism, catalytic activity
and stability under different experimantal parameters (pHs, temperatures) was
investigated. The
hNFs were characterized using SEM, EDX analysis, Bradford assay, UV-Vis
spectrometry and XRD. The effect of reaction temperatures on the morphology of
the hNFs was demonstrated with SEM images (Fig. 1).
