Immobilized inulinases: theoretical aspects and practical applications
Structural, functional, physical, chemical and kinetic properties of inulinases from various producers have been studied in a comparative aspect. The analysis of methods to their immobilization is carried out. Immobilization - is fixing of purified enzymes or enzyme systems on insoluble polymer matrices, which leads to stabilization of the catalytic activity of the preparations and turns them into technologically more convenient heterogeneous catalysts. Some ways and prospects of practical application of immobilized inulinases are considered.
