Abstract
An immobilized enzyme could exhibit selectively modified physicochemical properties, and it might offer a better environment for the enzyme activity. In this study, the immobilization yield of crude Halomonas sp. lipase was optimized to improve its stability. Thanks to its high adsorption capacity, CaCO3 has been chosen as support for the immobilization process. Furthermore, response surface methodology (RSM) was used to determine optimal conditions for the immobilization of the bacterial lipase. Five tested factors (enzyme solution, support amount, time, temperature, and acetone volume) were optimized applying a central composite design of RSM. The maximum yield of lipase immobilization was improved to 96%. Furthermore, a biochemical characterization proved a significant improvement of the immobilized lipase stability. The immobilized enzyme is more stable at extreme pH values and high temperatures than the free one. We also tested the reusability of the immobilized lipase by evaluating the recovery of the support using simple filtration. Thanks to its high stability, the immobilized lipase was invested in an effective treatment of tuna wash processing wastewater. The oil biodegradation efficiency was established at 81.5% and was confirmed by Fourier transformation infrared spectrometry. Likewise, the biological oxygen demand values were reduced which makes a possible reduction of the wastewater pollution degree.

Chemo-metric engineering designs for deciphering the biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 411:125154. [PMID: 33858107 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.125154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2020] [Revised: 01/07/2021] [Accepted: 01/13/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are non-polar organic compounds that are omnipresent in the environment and released due to anthropogenic activities through emissions and discharges. PAHs, being xenobiotic and exerts health impacts, thus they attract serious concern by the environmentalists. The stringent regulations and the need of sustainable development urges the hunt for a technically feasible and cost-effective wastewater treatment. Although the conventional physico-chemical treatment are widely preferred, they cause secondary pollution problems and demand subsequent treatment options. This comprehensive review intends to address the (a) different PAHs and their associated toxicity, (b) the remedial strategies, particularly biodegradation. The biological wastewater treatment techniques that involve microbial systems are highly influenced by the different physio-chemical and environmental parameters. Therefore, suitable optimization techniques are prerequisite for effective functioning of the biological treatment that sustains judiciously and interpreted in a lesser time. Here we have aimed to discuss (a) different chemo-metric tools involved in the design of experiments (DoE), (b) design equations and models, (c) tools for evaluating the model's adequacy and (d) plots for graphically interpreting the chemo-metric designs. However, to best of our knowledge, this is a first review to discuss the PAHs biodegradation that are tailored by chemo-metric designs. The associated challenges, available opportunities and techno-economic aspects of PAHs degradation using chemo-metric engineering designs are explained. Additionally, the review highlights how well these DoE tools can be suited for the sustainable socio-industrial sectors. Concomitantly, the futuristic scope and prospects to undertake new areas of research exploration were emphasized to unravel the least explored chemo-metric designs.

Abstract
In industrial application, immobilized lipase are typically not reused and served as industrial waste after a certain process is completed. The capacity on the reusability of the spent lipase is not well studied. This current study embarks on reusing the remaining lipase from the spent immobilized enzyme. Active lipases were recovered using a simple reverse micellar extraction (RME). RME is the extraction process of targeted biomolecules using an organic solvent and a surfactant. This method was the first attempt reported on the recovery of the lipase from the used immobilized lipase. RME of the spent lipase was done using the nonionic Triton X-100 surfactant and toluene. Various parameters were optimized to maximize the lipase recovery from the used immobilized lipase. The optimum forward extraction condition was 0.075 M KCl, and backward conditions were at 0.15 M Triton X-100/toluene (pH 6, 2 M KCl) with recovery of 66%. The extracted lipase was immobilized via simple adsorption into the ethanol pretreated carrier. The optimum conditions of immobilization resulted in 96% of the extracted lipase was reimmobilized. The reimmobilized lipase was incubated for 20 h in pH 6 buffer at 50 °C of water bath shaker. The reimmobilized lipase still had 27% residual activity after 18 h of incubation, which higher thermal stability compared to the free lipase. In conclusion, the free lipase was successfully extracted from the spent immobilized lipase and reimmobilized into the new support. It exhibited high thermal stability, and the reusability of the spent lipase will promote continued use of industrial lipase and reduce the cost of the manufacturing process.

Abstract
Background Obesity and its related diseases are increasing worldwide. One of the best therapeutic strategies for obesity management is through the inhibition of pancreatic lipase (PL) enzyme. So far orlistat is the only FDA approved PL inhibitor, but with unpleasant side effects. New efficacious anti-obesity drugs are needed to achieve a successful reduction in the incidence and prevalence of obesity. Many microbial metabolites have PL inhibitory activity. Screening soil inhabitants for PL inhibitors could help in increasing the available anti-obesity drugs. We aimed to isolate and identify alternative PL inhibitors from soil flora. Results We screened the crude mycelial methanolic extracts of 39 soil samples for PL inhibitory activity by the quantitative lipase colorimetric assay, using the substrate p-nitrophenyl palmitate and orlistat as positive control. AspsarO, a PL inhibitor producer, was isolated from an agricultural field soil in Giza, Egypt. It was identified as Aspergillus oryzae using colony morphology, microscopical characteristics, 18S rDNA sequencing, and molecular phylogeny. Increasing the PL inhibitor activity, in AspsarO cultures, from 25.9 ± 2% to 61.4 ± 1.8% was achieved by optimizing the fermentation process using a Placket–Burman design. The dried 100% methanolic fraction of the AspsarO culture had an IC50 of 7.48 μg/ml compared to 3.72 μg/ml for orlistat. It decreased the percent weight gain, significantly reduced the food intake and serum triglycerides levels in high-fat diet-fed Sprague–Dawley rats. Kojic acid, the active metabolite, was identified using several biological guided chromatographic and 1H and 13C NMR techniques and had an IC50 of 6.62 μg/ml. Docking pattern attributed this effect to the interaction of kojic acid with the key amino acids (Lys80, Trp252, and Asn84) in PL enzyme binding site. Conclusion Combining the results of the induced obesity animal model, in silico molecular docking and the lipase inhibitory assay, suggests that kojic acid can be a new therapeutic option for obesity management. Besides, it can lower serum triglycerides in obese patients.

The Immobilization of Lipases on Porous Support by Adsorption and Hydrophobic Interaction Method. Catalysts 2020.

Abstract
Four major enzymes commonly used in the market are lipases, proteases, amylases, and cellulases. For instance, in both academic and industrial levels, microbial lipases have been well studied for industrial and biotechnological applications compared to others. Immobilization is done to minimize the cost. The improvement of enzyme properties enables the reusability of enzymes and facilitates enzymes used in a continuous process. Immobilized enzymes are enzymes physically confined in a particularly defined region with retention to their catalytic activities. Immobilized enzymes can be used repeatedly compared to free enzymes, which are unable to catalyze reactions continuously in the system. Immobilization also provides a higher pH value and thermal stability for enzymes toward synthesis. The main parameter influencing the immobilization is the support used to immobilize the enzyme. The support should have a large surface area, high rigidity, suitable shape and particle size, reusability, and resistance to microbial attachment, which will enhance the stability of the enzyme. The diffusion of the substrate in the carrier is more favorable on hydrophobic supports instead of hydrophilic supports. The methods used for enzyme immobilization also play a crucial role in immobilization performance. The combination of immobilization methods will increase the binding force between enzymes and the support, thus reducing the leakage of the enzymes from the support. The adsorption of lipase on a hydrophobic support causes the interfacial activation of lipase during immobilization. The adsorption method also causes less or no change in enzyme conformation, especially on the active site of the enzyme. Thus, this method is the most used in the immobilization process for industrial applications.

Electrospun poly(methyl methacrylate)/polyaniline fibres as a support for laccase immobilisation and use in dye decolourisation. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2020; 184:109332. [PMID: 32151845 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2020.109332] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2019] [Revised: 02/29/2020] [Accepted: 02/29/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Novel electrospun poly(methyl methacrylate)/polyaniline electrospun fibres were produced, characterised, modified, and used as a support for laccase immobilisation by two methods: adsorption and covalent binding. Effective deposition of laccase by both methods was confirmed by FTIR and CLSM results. Nevertheless, the main objective of the study was to select the most favourable immobilisation conditions and prepare heterogeneous biocatalysts with the best possible catalytic properties. The highest relative activity of enzymes immobilised by adsorption and covalent binding were obtained after 1 h of immobilisation using laccase solution at a concentration of 1 mg/mL, at pH 5 and 25 °C. It was found that the immobilised enzymes, which were present in amounts of 110 mg/g and 185 mg/g for systems with adsorbed and covalently bonded laccase respectively, exhibited slightly lower substrate affinity, and in consequence also a lower maximum reaction rate, than the free enzyme. The stability of laccase improved significantly upon immobilisation: both heterogeneous biocatalysts retained over 80% relative activity even after 10 repeated catalytic cycles and 30 days of storage. The obtained systems were used for decolourisation of Remazol Brilliant Blue R dye from a model aqueous solution, resulting in removal efficiencies of 87% and 58% using adsorbed and covalently bonded laccase, respectively. The described approach to the removal of textile dye from model solution is significant for the sustainable and environmentally friendly decolourisation of various compounds from wastewater.

Abstract
In this work, TiO2 , which was modified by glutaraldehyde, was adopted as the carrier; the penicillin G acylase (PGA) was immobilized and the influence of immobilized conditions, such as pH of solution, the concentration of PGA, the immobilization temperature, and the reaction time, on the catalytic performance of the immobilized PGA was investigated and optimized. During this process, potassium penicillin G (PG) was chosen as substrate, and the quantity of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) produced by PG at the temperature of 25 °C for 3 Min in neutral solution was conscripted as the evaluation foundation, indexes, containing the loading capacity (ELC), the activity (EA), and activity retention rate (EAR), were calculated based on quantities of produced 6-APA and compared with finding out the suitable conditions. Results showed that when the solution pH, PGA concentration, immobilization temperature, and reaction time were 8.0, 2.5% (v/v), 35 °C, and 24 H, respectively, ELC, EA, and EAR presented optimal values of 9,190 U, 14,969 U/g, and 88.5% relatedly. After that, the stability and reusability of immobilized PGA were studied, and the results documented that the pH resistance, thermal stability, and storage stability of immobilized PGA were significantly improved. This work provided technique support for the practical application of immobilized PGA carrier.

Abstract
The immobilization of Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) onto biochar was studied in a series of batch experiments. CRL sorption behavior was evaluated as a function of pH, enzyme concentration, temperature and ionic strength. As the immobilized lipase was used for the catalytic esterification of oleic acid, its resistance to solvents and thermal stability were evaluated. CRL adsorption increased by increasing temperature, and with higher pH, reaching a maximum at pH 7.0. Immobilization increased lipase stability at 40 °C by more than 80% when compared to the free enzyme. Moreover, immobilized CRL showed high stability in the presence of tert-butanol, which prevents premature deactivation of the enzyme caused by alcohols during the reaction. Immobilization of CRL increased the oleic acid conversion rate. Our results suggest that biochar is a highly promising material for the immobilization of CRL lipase for the catalytic production of esters.

Abstract
The present study was conducted to purify lipase from indigenous Bacillus subtilis strain Kakrayal_1 (BSK-L) for enantioselective resolution of racemic-ketoprofen. The production of lipase (BSK-L) was optimized using Plackett-Burman and central composite design of response surface methodology (RSM). The optimized media containing olive oil (3.5%), MnSO4 (8 mM), CaCl2 (5 mM), peptone (20 g/l), pH (8), agitation (180 rpm) and temperature (37 °C) resulted in maximum lipase production of 7500 U/g of cell biomass. The lipase was purified using sequential method to an overall purification fold of 13% with 20% recovery, 882 U/mg specific activity and a molecular weight of 45 kDa. Optimal pH and temperature of purified lipase were found to be 8 and 37 °C, respectively. Furthermore, BSK-L displayed good stability with various organic solvents, surfactants and metal ions. K m and V max values of lipase were observed to be 2.2 mM and 6.67 mmoles of product formed/min/mg, respectively. The racemic ketoprofen butyl ester was hydrolyzed using lipase with 49% conversion efficiency and 69% enantiomeric excess (ee) which was superior to the commercially procured lipase (Candida antarctica lipase). Thus, this enzyme could be considered as a promising candidate for the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
Lipase B from Candida antarctica (CAL-B) is largely employed as a biocatalyst for hydrolysis, esterification, and transesterification reactions. CAL-B is a good model enzyme to study factors affecting the enzymatic structure, activity and/or stability after an immobilization process. In this study, we analyzed the immobilization of CAL-B enzyme on different magnetic nanoparticles, synthesized by the coprecipitation method inside inverse micelles made of zwitterionic surfactants, with distinct carbon chain length: 4 (ImS4), 10 (ImS10) and 18 (ImS18) carbons. Magnetic nanoparticles ImS4 and ImS10 were shown to cross-link to CAL-B enzyme via a Michael-type addition, whereas particles with ImS18 were bond via pyridine formation after glutaraldehyde cross-coupling. Interestingly, the Michael-type cross-linking generated less stable immobilized CAL-B, revealing the influence of a cross-linking mode on the resulting biocatalyst behavior. Curiously, a direct correlation between nanoparticle agglomerate sizes and CAL-B enzyme reuse stability was observed. Moreover, free CAL-B enzyme was not able to catalyze transesterification due to the high methanol concentration; however, the immobilized CAL-B enzyme reached yields from 79.7 to 90% at the same conditions. In addition, the transesterification of lipids isolated from oleaginous yeasts achieved 89% yield, which confirmed the potential of immobilized CAL-B enzyme in microbial production of biodiesel.

Abstract
A magnetic nanocomposite was prepared by entrapment of Fe3O4 nanoparticles into the cross-linked ionic liquid/epoxy type polymer. The resulting support was used for covalent immobilization of cellulase through the reaction with epoxy groups. The ionic surface of the support improved the adsorption of enzyme, and a large amount of enzyme (106.1 mg/g) was loaded onto the support surface. The effect of the presence of ionic monomer and covalent binding of enzyme was also investigated. The structure of support was characterized by various instruments such as FT-IR, TGA, VSM, XRD, TEM, SEM, and DLS. The activity and stability of immobilized cellulase were investigated in the prepared support. The results showed that the ionic surface and covalent binding of enzyme onto the support improved the activity, thermal stability, and reusability of cellulase compared to free cellulase.

Abstract
The present work reports covalent immobilization of Pseudomonas fluorescens lipase (PFL) on functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as a nanobiocatalyst (NBC). This nanobiocatalyst facilitates efficient kinetic resolution of (RS)-1-phenylethanol into (S)-1-phenylethanol [C=49.7%, eep=99.5%, ees=98.1% and E value=191.4]. The immobilized preparation (MWCNTs-PFL) showed ten-fold increase in activity, thermal stability upto 80 °C and recyclability (8 cycles). MWCNTs-PFL nanobioconjugate demonstrated better stability and enhanced activity compared to covalently immobilized PFL on other matrices (silver nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles and chitosan beads) used for the study. A statistical design [response surface methodology (RSM)] employed for the optimization of enzyme immobilization parameters made this study statistically more significant. Overall, the newly developed nanobiocatalyst has applications towards the kinetic resolution of racemic compounds.

Abstract
Abstract
By the facile adhesion way, the novel composite complex by polydopamine (PDA) and magnetic graphite nanosheets (Fe3O4@GNSs) has been successfully synthesized. The resulting composite was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra, and Raman spectra, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometry. Meanwhile, the PDA functionalized Fe3O4@GNSs (Fe3O4@GNSs-PDA) was applied for Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) immobilization covalently without any toxic coupling agent. Combining the superior physical properties and chemical stability of Fe3O4@GNSs and the well biocompatibility, functional characteristics of PDA, the Fe3O4@GNSs-PDA composite displayed several advantages, including the high enzyme capacity, enzyme activity and stability and a decrease in enzyme loss. Our work demonstrated that the mussel-inspired Fe3O4@GNSs can be extended to many other applications such as biocatalytic, genetic and industrial.

Improved stability and enhanced efficiency to degrade chlorimuron-ethyl by the entrapment of esterase SulE in cross-linked poly (γ-glutamic acid)/gelatin hydrogel. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2015; 287:287-295.

Abstract
Free enzymes often undergo some problems such as easy deactivation, low stability, and less recycling in biodegradation processes, especially in soil condition. A novel esterase SulE, which is responsible for primary degradation of a wide range of sulfonylurea herbicides by methyl or ethyl ester de-esterification, was expressed by strain Hansschlegelia sp. CHL1 and entrapped for the first time in an environment-friendly, biocompatible and biodegradable cross-linked poly (γ-glutamic acid)/gelatin hydrogel (CPE). The activity and stability of CPE-SulE were compared with free SulE under varying pH and temperature condition by measuring chlorimuron-ethyl residue. Meanwhile, the three-dimensional network of CPE-SulE was verified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that CPE-SulE obviously improved thermostability, pH stability and reusability compared with free SulE. Furthermore, CPE-SulE enhanced degrading efficiency of chlorimuron-ethyl in both soil and water system, especially in acid environment. The characteristics of CPE-SulE suggested the great potential to remediate chlorimuron-ethyl contaminated soils in situ.

Abstract
Cross-linked enzyme aggregate (CLEA) is easily prepared from crude enzyme and has many advantages to the environment and it is considered as an economic method in the context of industrial biocatalysis compared to free enzyme. In this work, a highly active and stable CLEA-lipase from cocoa pod husk (CPH) which is a by-product after removal of cocoa beans, were assayed for their hydrolytic activity and characterized under the optimum condition successfully. Face centered central composite design (FCCCD) under response surface methodology (RSM) was used to get the optimal conditions of the three significant factors (concentration of ammonium sulfate, concentration of glutaraldehyde and concentration of additive) to achieve higher enzyme activity of CLEA. From 20 runs, the highest activity recorded was around 9.407U (83% recovered activity) under the condition of using 20% saturated ammonium sulfate, 60mM glutaraldehyde as cross-linker and 0.17mM bovine serum albumin as feeder. Moreover, the optimal reaction temperature and pH value in enzymatic reaction for both crude enzyme and immobilized were found to be 45°C at pH 8 and 60°C at pH 8.2, respectively. A systematic study of the stability of CLEA and crude enzyme was taken with regards to temperature (25-60°C) and pH (5-10) value and in both factors, CLEA-lipase showed more stability than free lipase. The Km value of CLEA was higher compared to free enzyme (0.55mM vs. 0.08mM). The CLEA retained more than 60% of the initial activity after six cycles of reuse compared to free enzyme. The high stability and recyclability of CLEA-lipase from CPH make it efficient for different industrial applications.

Abstract
Methyl parathion hydrolase (MPH) is an important enzyme in hydrolyzing toxic organophosphorus (OP) compounds. However, MPH is easily deactivated when subjected to extreme environmental conditions and is difficult to recover from the reaction system for reuse, thereby limiting its practical application. To address these shortcomings, we examined the entrapment of MPH in an environment-friendly, biocompatible and biodegradable cross-linked poly(γ-glutamic acid)/gelatin hydrogel. The cross-linked poly(γ-glutamic acid)/gelatin hydrogels were prepared with different gelatin/poly(γ-glutamic acid) mass ratios using water-soluble carbodiimide as the cross-linking agent. The MPH-entrapped cross-linked poly(γ-glutamic acid)/gelatin hydrogel (CPE-MPH) not only possessed improved thermostability, pH stability, and reusability but also exhibited enhanced efficiency in hydrolyzing OP compounds. Furthermore, CPE-MPH possesses high water-absorbing and water-retaining capabilities. We believe that the cross-linked poly(γ-glutamic acid)/gelatin hydrogels are an attractive carrier for the entrapment of diverse enzymes, affording a new approach for enzyme entrapment.

Abstract
Microbial lipase from Candida rugosa (Amano AY-30) has good transesterification activity and can be used for biodiesel production. In this study, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane was grafted with 1,4-diaminobutane and activated by glutaraldehyde for C. rugosa lipase immobilization. After immobilization, the biocatalytic membrane was used for producing biodiesel from soybean oil and methanol via transesterification. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) in combination with a 5-level-5-factor central composite rotatable design (CCRD) was employed to evaluate the effects of reaction time, reaction temperature, enzyme amount, substrate molar ratio and water content on the yield of soybean oil methyl ester. By ridge max analysis, the predicted and experimental yields under the optimum synthesis conditions were 97% and 95%, respectively. The lipase-immobilized PVDF membrane showed good reuse ability for biodiesel production, enabling operation for at least 165 h during five reuses of the batch, without significant loss of activity.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have evolved as a new type of non-aqueous solvents for biocatalysis, mainly due to their unique and tunable physical properties. A number of recent review papers have described a variety of enzymatic reactions conducted in IL solutions, on the other hand, to improve the enzyme's activity and stability in ILs; major methods being explored include the enzyme immobilization (on solid support, sol-gel, etc.), protic ionic liquids used as an additive process. The immobilization of the lipase from Burkholderia cepacia by the sol-gel technique using protic ionic liquids (PIL) as additives to protect against inactivation of the lipase due to release of alcohol and shrinkage of the gel during the sol-gel process was investigated in this study. The influence of various factors such as the length of the alkyl chain of protic ionic liquids (monoethanolamine-based) and a concentration range between 0.5 and 3.0% (w/v) were evaluated. The resulting hydrophobic matrices and immobilized lipases were characterised with regard to specific surface area, adsorption-desorption isotherms, pore volume (V(p)) and size (d(p)) according to nitrogen adsorption and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), physico-chemical properties (thermogravimetric - TG, differential scanning calorimetry - DSC and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy - FTIR) and the potential for ethyl ester and emulsifier production. The total activity yields (Y(a)) for matrices of immobilized lipase employing protic ionic liquids as additives always resulted in higher values compared with the sample absent the protic ionic liquids, which represents 35-fold increase in recovery of enzymatic activity using the more hydrophobic protic ionic liquids. Compared with arrays of the immobilized biocatalyst without additive, in general, the immobilized biocatalyst in the presence of protic ionic liquids showed increased values of surface area (143-245 m(2) g(-1)) and pore size (19-38 Å). Immobilization with protic ionic liquids also favoured reduced mass loss according to TG curves (always less than 42.9%) when compared to the immobilized matrix without protic ionic liquids (45.1%), except for the sample containing 3.0% protic ionic liquids (46.5%), verified by thermogravimetric analysis. Ionic liquids containing a more hydrophobic alkyl group in the cationic moiety were beneficial for recovery of the activity of the immobilized lipase. The physico-chemical characterization confirmed the presence of the enzyme and its immobilized derivatives obtained in this study by identifying the presence of amino groups, and profiling enthalpy changes of mass loss.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic alginate nanospheres with diameter of 50 nm were prepared by self-assembly of alginate in the Ca(2+) solution; and then superparamagnetic alginate/chitosan nanospheres, which have positive charge and could adsorb lipase directly, were obtained with a following assembly of chitosan based on the electrostatic interaction between alginate and chitosan. Subsequently, oxidic poly (ethylene glycol) was used to functionalize the magnetic alginate/chitosan nanospheres. Thus, the magnetic nanospheres with aldehyde groups and a brushlike structure were formed. With various characterizations, it was verified that the magnetic alginate/chitosan nanospheres held small diameters (around 60 nm) and displayed superparamagnetism with high saturation magnetization. The Candida rugosa lipase (CRL), meanwhile, was immobilized onto the magnetic alginate/chitosan nanospheres by electrostatic adsorption and covalent bonding, respectively. Afterward, a layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly process was utilized to coat the immobilized CRL (ICRL) with covering layers made up of alginate and chitosan. After studying the properties of ICRL such as activity, kinetic behaviors, stability and reusability, it was proved that the ICRL prepared with two methods displayed more excellent properties than that prepared with electrostatic adsorption only. Additionally, coating ICRL with covering layers showed good effect on improving the stability of ICRL.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop an optimal continuous process for lipase immobilization in a bed reactor in order to investigate the possibility of large-scale production. An extracellular lipase of Pseudozyma hubeiensis (strain HB85A) was immobilized by adsorption onto a polystyrene-divinylbenzene support. Furthermore, response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize enzyme immobilization and evaluate the optimum temperature and pH for free and immobilized enzyme. The optimal immobilization conditions observed were 150 min incubation time, pH 4.76, and an enzyme/support ratio of 1282 U/g support. Optimal activity temperature for free and immobilized enzyme was found to be 68°C and 52°C, respectively. Optimal activity pH for free and immobilized lipase was pH 4.6 and 6.0, respectively. Lipase immobilization resulted in improved enzyme stability in the presence of nonionic detergents, at high temperatures, at acidic and neutral pH, and at high concentrations of organic solvents such as 2-propanol, methanol, and acetone.
