[Sorption of enzymes on ion exchange resins of various structure]

The isothermic adsorption of microbial and animal enzymes on carboxyl and sulpha-cation exchange resins was studied. The adsorption isotherms are curves with a maximum. The adsorption of alpha-amylase was studied in the presence of organic solvents. It was found that organic solvents influenced the isothermic adsorption of alpha-amylase, which is associated with changes in the interactions between protein molecules in solution. The adsorption system was in equilibrium in all the cases.
