Abstract:
In this research, a core-shell immobilized lipase was constructed with the cost-effective bamboo carrier. Natural bamboo powder was pretreated by different methods. The results of SEM and BET demonstrated that alkali pretreatment increased the surface roughness with formed wrinkles and micropores, facilitating the lipase adsorption on the pretreated carrier. The optimal immobilization conditions were obtained through the response surface method, and the optimized conditions were 2 wt% sodium hydroxide solution, 1.2 wt% sodium alginate, and 0.69 wt% calcium chloride at a calcification time of 100 min. Under this condition, the immobilized lipase showed an excellent protein adsorption rate and thermal stability. When the core-shell structured immobilized lipase was used in wax ester synthesis system, the esterification yield (80%) did not show an obvious decline after 17 batches. The results indicated that the core-shell immobilized lipase is effective for the biocatalytic reaction, and the immobilization method is a promising strategy for future enzyme immobilization and modification in industrial applications.

02:55Temperature Dependence on Reaction Rate
Atoms, molecules, or ions must collide before they can react with each other. Atoms must be close together to form chemical bonds. This premise is the basis for a theory that explains many observations regarding chemical kinetics, including factors affecting reaction rates.
The collision theory is based on the postulates that (i) the reaction rate is proportional to the rate of reactant collisions, (ii) the reacting species collide in an orientation allowing contact between...

The paradox
Nucleosomes, paradoxically, perform two opposite functions simultaneously. On the one hand, their main responsibility is to protect the delicate DNA strands from physical damage and help achieve a higher compaction ratio. While on the other hand, they must allow polymerase enzymes to access DNA...
