Area of Science:

  • Biotechnology and Biochemistry
  • Materials Science

Context:

  • Enzyme stability and activity are critical for biocatalysis and diagnostics.
  • Current methods for enzyme immobilization can alter enzyme kinetics or stability.
  • Developing robust encapsulation techniques is essential for industrial enzyme applications.

Purpose:

  • To develop and characterize a new method for encapsulating enzymes using multilayer polyelectrolyte coating.
  • To investigate the impact of this encapsulation on the catalytic properties and stability of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH).

Summary:

  • A novel enzyme encapsulation technique utilizes stepwise adsorption of polyelectrolytes (polystyrene sulfonate and polyallylamine) onto protein aggregates.
  • Encapsulated pig muscle lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.13) exhibited a 1-5 micron size, maintained substrate affinity (K(M)), and showed increased stability.
