The enzyme was immobilized on nylon membrane with glutaraldehyde as the cross linking agent. The appropriate conditions for immobilization were as follows: (1) The concentration of enzyme, 13 5 U/ml (concentration of protein: 0 03 mg/ml); (2) The optimum time for cross linking by glutaraldehyde was 20 minutes; (3)The optimum time for immobilization was 7 hours; (4) The optimum concentration of glutaraldehyde was 0 25%; (5) The optimum temperature was 4℃. The activity of immobilized enzyme reached 35—40 U/g matrix, and the activity recovery was 76 2% and the coupling efficiency was 76 3%. The stability of immobilized enzyme under acid, basic and high temperature conditions were enhanced and shifted toward basic pH range. It will be beneficial for industrial utilization.展开更多
