Abstract:
Immobilization of enzymes can effectively improve their stability, facilitate their recycling and reduce the cost, which is of great significance for the development of highly efficient biocatalysis technology. Here a simple strategy to encapsulate enzymes into polymeric microcapsules fabricated by visible light induced graft polymerization on a removable template was developed. The strategy showed a high degree of enzyme loading and excellent reusability of the immobilized enzyme.
