Özet

Enzyme has been unique properties due to eco-friendly nature and superior catalytic activity, high reaction specificity and low toxicity [1]. However, their efficient use is limited due to some connatural disadvantages due to being without stability, difficulty in recovery and reusability, loss of catalytic activity after administration into the reaction and high cost. In order to overcome these disadvantages, several immobilization approaches have been developed. The expectancy with enzyme immobilization is to improve both catalytic activity and stability [2]. Recently, hybrid materials, combining with the advantages of organic and inorganic components have been widely applied for enzyme immobilization because of their unique properties. Herein, we present a study on the formation, catalytic activity and stability of hybrid nanoflowers (hNFs) containing uricase and copper ions.
