Abstract
In this study, thrombin was immobilized with magnetic particles modified by glutaraldehyde. The changes in secondary structures of immobilized enzyme revealed an increment in conformational rigidity and stability, which can be reflected in temperature and pH stability as well as the tolerance of organic reagents. The optimal reutilization times of magnetic particle immobilized thrombin were 7 times, and the half-life of enzyme activity preserved at room temperature was 5 days, which was 2.5 times higher than that of free enzyme. Ligusticum chuanxiong and Anemarrhenae Rhizoma with high enzyme inhibitory activity were selected for primary screening, and six potential inhibitors of thrombin were identified by HPLC/MS. The results showed that three compounds in Anemarrhenae Rhizoma had better predictive thrombin inhibitory activity. Through the in vitro thrombin activity inhibition experiment, it was also verified that mangiferin and neo-mangiferin had an ideal thrombin activity inhibition effect, which was consistent with the results of molecular docking.

Immobilization of α-amylase onto functionalized molybdenum diselenide nanoflowers (MoSe 2-NFs) as scaffolds: Characterization, kinetics, and potential applications in starch-based industries.

Abstract
The current study presents the application of molybdenum diselenide nanoflowers (MoSe2-NFs) as an innovative substrate for immobilizing α-amylase by glutaraldehyde activation. This approach results in the development of a nanobiocatalyst that exhibits remarkable advantages compared to a standalone enzyme. Several physical methods, such as fluorescence microscopy, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, XRD, AFM, and Raman spectroscopy, were used to confirm that α-amylase was successfully attached to MoSe2-NFs. By employing the Box-Behnken design of the RSM, the parameters were optimized, resulting in an immobilization efficiency of roughly 87.33%. The immobilized variant of α-amylase demonstrated superior thermostability, pH stability, reusability, and storage stability in comparison to the soluble enzyme. The catalytic activity of α-amylase was highest when immobilized on MoSe2-NFs at the same pH and temperature as the soluble enzyme. However, there was an expansion in the range of parameters in which this activity was observed. Furthermore, the immobilized enzyme exhibited a retention of nearly 80% residual activity following 12 successive reuses. The immobilized enzyme exhibited around 82% residual activity after being stored for 120 days. It is possible that the immobilization process changed the Michaelis-Menten constant, which means that the substrate could no longer reach certain active sites on the enzyme because it had become longer. The study's findings suggest that the α-amylase-MoSe2-NFs system could be useful in industry because it can work in a wider range of temperature and pH conditions. Furthermore, the intrinsic non-toxic characteristics of the matrix, along with its ability to be kept for prolonged periods and recycled, render nano biocatalysts very well-suited for the effective synthesis of maltose in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
A new type of electrochemical biosensors in a flow injection system with printed electrodes were developed and tested. A filter disc (7 mm diameter) with immobilized enzyme was placed at the printed electrode. This conception combines the advantages of biosensors with a bioreceptor at the electrode surface and systems with spatially separated enzymatic and detection parts. Filters of different composition (glass, quartz, and cellulose), thickness, porosity, and ways of binding enzyme to their surface were tested. Only covalent bonds throughout a filter-aminosilane-glutaraldehyde-enzyme chain ensured a long-time and reproducible biosensor response. The developed method of biosensor preparation has been successfully applied to enzymes glucose oxidase, laccase and choline oxidase. The dependences of peak current on detection potential, flow rate, injection volume, analyte concentration as well as biosensor lifetime and reproducibility were investigated for glucose oxidase biosensor. The sensitivity of measurements was two or more times higher than that of biosensor with a mini-reactor filled by powder with immobilized enzyme. The developed biosensor with laccase was tested by determining dopamine in the pharmaceutical infusion product Tensamin®. Results of the analysis (40.0 ± 0.7 mg mL-1, SD = 0.8 mg mL-1, RSD = 1.85 %, N = 11) show a good agreement with the manufacturer's declared value.

Abstract
The enzyme immobilization technology has become a key tool in the field of enzyme applications; however, improving the activity recovery and stability of the immobilized enzymes is still challenging. Herein, we employed a magnetic carboxymethyl cellulose (MCMC) nanocomposite modified with ionic liquids (ILs) for covalent immobilization of lipase, and used Ca-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as the support skeleton and protective layer for immobilized enzymes. The ILs contained long side chains (eight CH2 units), which not only enhanced the hydrophobicity of the carrier and its hydrophobic interaction with the enzymes, but also provided a certain buffering effect when the enzyme molecules were subjected to compression. Compared to free lipase, the obtained CaBPDC@PPL-IL-MCMC exhibited higher specific activity and enhanced stability. In addition, the biocatalyst could be easily separated using a magnetic field, which is beneficial for its reusability. After 10 cycles, the residual activity of CaBPDC@PPL-IL-MCMC could reach up to 86.9%. These features highlight the good application prospects of the present immobilization method.

Abstract
Orientationally immobilized enzyme microreactors (OIMERs), embedded in microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) were developed for improved detection of pesticide residues in food. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was orientationally immobilized on the reusable Part I of the μPADs, using the specific affinity binding of concanavalin A (Con A) to a glycosyl group on AChE. Using the disposable Part II, facile colorimetric quantification was performed with a smartphone and software, or qualitative detection by a naked-eye visual test. The AChE immobilized in OIMERs not only had improved activity and stability, but also high sensitivity, with a limit of detection as low as (0.007 ± 0.003) μg/mL. The method was used to detect pesticides residues in real vegetable samples; the recovery (88.6-102.7%) showed high reliability for pesticide residues detection in foods. A molecular docking study and an enzyme kinetic analysis were conducted to characterize the mechanism of action of the OIMERs.

Abstract
Daily monitoring of serum uric acid levels is very important to provide appropriate treatment according to the constitution and lifestyle of individual hyperuricemic patients. We have developed a suspension-based assay to measure uric acid by adding a sample solution to the suspension containing micro-sized particles immobilized on uricase and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). In the proposed method, the mediator reaction of uricase, HRP, and uric acid produces resorufin from Amplex red. This resorufin is adsorbed onto enzyme-immobilized micro-sized particles simultaneously with its production, resulting in the red color of the micro-sized particles. The concentration of resorufin on the small surface area of the microscopic particles achieves a colorimetric analysis of uric acid with superior visibility. In addition, ethanol-induced desorption of resorufin allowed quantitative measurement of uric acid using a 96-well fluorescent microplate reader. The limit of detection (3σ) and RSD (n = 3) were estimated to be 2.2 × 10-2 μg/mL and ≤ 12.1%, respectively. This approach could also be applied to a portable fluorometer.

Abstract
Non-homogeneous enzyme-catalyzed systems are more widely used than homogeneous systems. Distinguished from the conventional biphasic approach, Pickering emulsion stabilized by ultrafine solid particles opens up an innovative platform for biocatalysis. Their vast specific surface area significantly enhances enzyme-substrate interactions, dramatically increasing catalytic efficiency. This review comprehensively explores various aspects of Pickering emulsion biocatalysis, provides insights into the multiple types and mechanisms of its catalysis, and offers strategies for material design, enzyme immobilization, emulsion formation control, and reactor design. Characterization methods are summarized for the determination of drop size, emulsion type, interface morphology, and emulsion potential. Furthermore, recent reports on the design of stimuli-responsive reaction systems are reviewed, enabling the simple control of demulsification. Moreover, the review explores applications of Pickering emulsion in single-step, cascade, and continuous flow reactions and outlines the challenges and future directions for the field. Overall, we provide a review focusing on Pickering emulsions catalysis, which can draw the attention of researchers in the field of catalytic system design, further empowering next-generation bioprocessing.

Abstract
Bacillus sp. possessing a periplasmic nitrate reductase was used as a recognition element to develop a nitrate biosensor. The bacteria was embedded within a polyaniline (PANI) electro-conductive matrix via electro-polymerization on miniaturized carbon screen-printed electrodes (SPE) at 100 mV/s and scan rate from -0.35 V to + 1.7 V. Surface medication of SPE was verified via Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The optimal bacterial density was OD600 1.2. To enhance the biosensors performance, Bacillus sp. was (1) grown in riboflavin (RF) inducing media as an endogenous redox mediator and (2) exposed to different gamma radiation doses as a physical method to increase electron transfer. Results show a link between exposing cells to gamma irradiation stress, this was evident by electron spin resonance (ESR) and changes in FTIR spectrum, in addition to the increase in catalase enzyme. The nitrate limit of detection (LOD) was 0.5-25 mg/L for non-irradiated RF induced immobilized cells and LOD was 0.5-75 mg/L nitrate for 2 kGy gamma irradiated cells. The prepared biosensor showed acceptable reproducibility and multiple usages after storage at 4°C over 3 months. Low cost and simple preparation allow the biosensor to be mass-produced as a disposable device. Bacillus sp. and its endogenous redox mediator immobilized within polyaniline are good candidates for the improvement of amperometric biosensors for the quantification of nitrate in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Encapsulation of enzymes within porous materials has shown great promise for protecting enzymes from denaturation, increasing their tolerance to harsh environments and promoting their industrialization. However, controlling the conformational freedom of the encapsulated enzymes to enhance their catalytic performance remains a great challenge. To address this issue, herein, following immobilization of GOx and HRP on a thermo-responsive porous poly(styrene-maleic-anhydride-N-isopropylacrylamide) (PSMN) membrane, a GOx-HRP@PSMN@HZIF-8 composite was fabricated by encapsulating GOx-HRP@PSMN in hollow ZIF-8 (HZIF-8) with liposome (L) as the sacrificial template. The improved conformational freedom for enzymes arising from the hollow cavity formed in ZIF-8 through the removal of L enhanced the mass transfer and dramatically promoted the catalytic activity of the composite. Interestingly, at high temperature, the coiled PN moiety in PSMN provided the confinement effect for GOx-HRP, which also significantly boosted the catalytic performance of the composites. Compared to the maximum catalytic reaction rates (Vmax) of GOx-HRP@PSMN@LZIF-8, the free enzyme and GOx-HRP@ZIF-8, the Vmax of the GOx-HRP@PSMN@HZIF-8 composite exhibited an impressive 17.8-fold, 10.8-fold and 6.0-fold enhancement at 37 °C, respectively. The proposed composites successfully demonstrated their potential as catalytic platforms for the colorimetric detection of glucose in a cascade reaction. This study paves a new way for overcoming the current limitations of immobilizing enzymes in porous materials and the use of smart polymers for the potential fabrication of enzyme@polymer@MOF composites with tunable conformational freedom and confinement effect.

Abstract
Multienzyme assemblies mediated by multivalent interaction play a crucial role in cellular processes. However, the three-dimensional (3D) programming of an enzyme complex with defined enzyme activity in vitro remains unexplored, primarily owing to limitations in precisely controlling the spatial topological configuration. Herein, we introduce a nanoscale 3D enzyme assembly using a tetrahedral DNA framework (TDF), enabling the replication of spatial topological configuration and maintenance of an identical edge-to-edge distance akin to natural enzymes. Our results demonstrate that 3D nanoscale enzyme assemblies in both two-enzyme systems (glucose oxidase (GOx)/horseradish peroxidase (HRP)) and three-enzyme systems (amylglucosidase (AGO)/GOx/HRP) lead to enhanced cascade catalytic activity compared to the low-dimensional structure, resulting in ∼5.9- and ∼7.7-fold enhancements over homogeneous diffusional mixtures of free enzymes, respectively. Furthermore, we demonstrate the enzyme assemblies for the detection of the metabolism biomarkers creatinine and creatine, achieving a low limit of detection, high sensitivity, and broad detection range.

Abstract
Continuous-flow biocatalysis utilizing immobilized enzymes emerged as a sustainable route for chemical synthesis. However, inadequate biocatalytic efficiency from current flow reactors, caused by non-productive enzyme immobilization or enzyme-carrier mismatches in size, hampers its widespread application. Here, we demonstrate a general-applicable and robust approach for the fabrication of a high-performance enzymatic continuous-flow reactor via integrating well-designed scalable isoporous block copolymer (BCP) membranes as carriers with an oriented and productive immobilization employing material binding peptides (MBP). Densely packed uniform enzyme-matched nanochannels of well-designed BCP membranes endow the desired nanoconfined environments towards a productive immobilized phytase. Tuning nanochannel properties can further regulate the complex reaction process and fortify the catalytic performance. The synergistic design of enzyme-matched carriers and efficient enzyme immobilization empowers an excellent catalytic performance with >1 month operational stability, superior productivity, and a high space-time yield (1.05 × 105 g L-1 d-1) via a single-pass continuous-flow process. The obtained performance makes the designed nano- and isoporous block copolymer membrane reactor highly attractive for industrial applications.

Abstract
Recent advances have demonstrated the promise of complex multicomponent polymeric supports to enable supra-biological enzyme performance. However, the discovery of such supports has been limited by time-consuming, low-throughput synthesis and screening. Here, we describe a novel combinatorial and high-throughput platform that enables rapid screening of complex and heterogeneous copolymer brushes as enzyme immobilization supports, named combinatorial high-throughput enzyme support screening (CHESS). Using a 384-well plate format, we synthesized arrays of three-component polymer brushes in the microwells using photoactivated surface-initiated polymerization and immobilized enzymes in situ. The utility of CHESS to identify optimal immobilization supports under thermally and chemically denaturing conditions was demonstrated usingBacillus subtilisLipase A (LipA). The identification of supports with optimal compositions was validated by immobilizing LipA on polymer-brush-modified biocatalyst particles. We further demonstrated that CHESS could be used to predict the optimal composition of polymer brushes a priori for the previously unexplored enzyme, alkaline phosphatase (AlkP). Our findings demonstrate that CHESS represents a predictable and reliable platform for dramatically accelerating the search of chemical compositions for immobilization supports and further facilitates the discovery of biocompatible and stabilizing materials.

Abstract
Regulating macroscopic fluid flow by catalytic harnessing of chemical energy could potentially provide a solution for powerless microfluidic devices. Earlier reports have shown that surface-anchored enzymes can actuate the surrounding fluid in the presence of the respective substrate in a concentration-dependent manner. It is also crucial to have control over the flow speed of a self-powered enzyme micropump in various applications where controlled dosing and mixing are required. However, modulating the flow speed independent of the fuel concentration remains a significant challenge. In a quest to regulate the fluid flow in such a system, a supramolecular approach has been adopted, where reversible regulation of enzyme activity was achieved by a two-faced synthetic receptor bearing sulfonamide and adamantane groups. The bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) enzyme containing a single binding site favorable to the sulfonamide group was used as a model enzyme, and the enzyme activity was inhibited in the presence of the two-faced inhibitor. The same effect was reflected when the immobilized enzyme was used as an engine to actuate the fluid flow. The flow velocity was reduced up to 53% in the presence of 100 μM inhibitor. Later, upon addition of a supramolecular "host" CB[7], the inhibitor was sequestered from the enzyme due to the higher binding affinity of CB[7] with the adamantane functionality of the inhibitor. As a result, the flow velocity was restored to ∼72%, thus providing successful supramolecular control over a self-powered enzyme micropump.

Abstract
Prenyltransferases catalyze the synthesis of prenylated flavonoids, providing these with greater lipid solubility, biological activity, and availability. In this study, a thermostable prenyltransferase (AfPT) from Aspergillus fumigatiaffinis was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. By optimizing induction conditions, the expression level of AfPT reached 39.3 mU/mL, which was approximately 200 % of that before optimization. Additionally, we determined the enzymatic properties of AfPT. Subsequently, AfPT was immobilized on carboxymethyl cellulose magnetic nanoparticles (CMN) at a maximum load of 0.6 mg/mg. Optimal activity of CMN-AfPT was achieved at pH 8.0 and 55 °C. Thermostability assays showed that the residual activity of CMN-AfPT was greater than 50 % after incubation at 55 °C for 4 h. Km and Vmax of CMN-AfPT for naringenin were 0.082 mM and 5.57 nmol/min/mg, respectively. The Kcat/Km ratio of CMN-AfPT was higher than that of AfPT. Residual prenyltransferase activity of CMN-AfPT remained higher than 70 % even after 30 days of storage. Further, CMN-AfPT retained 68 % of its original activity after 10 cycles of reuse. Compared with free AfPT, CMN-AfPT showed higher catalytic efficiency, thermostability, metal ion tolerance, substrate affinity, storage stability, and reusability. Our study presents a thermostable prenyltransferase and its immobilized form for the production of prenylated flavonoids in vitro.

Abstract
Immobilization of enzymes on aminated supports using the glutaraldehyde chemistry may involve three different interactions, cationic, hydrophobic, and covalent interactions. To try to understand the impact this heterofunctionality, we study the physical adsorption of the beta-galactosidase from Aspergillus niger, on aminated supports (MANAE) and aminated supports with one (MANAE-GLU) or two molecules of glutaraldehyde (MANAE-GLU-GLU). To eliminate the chemical reactivity of the glutaraldehyde, the supports were reduced using sodium borohydride. After enzyme adsorption, the release of the enzyme from the supports using different NaCl concentrations, Triton X100, ionic detergents (SDS and CTAB), or different temperatures (4 °C to 55 °C) was studied. Using MANAE support, at 0.3 M NaCl almost all the immobilized enzyme was released. Using MANAE-GLU, 0.3 M, and 0.6 M NaCl similar results were obtained. However, incubation at 1 M or 2 M NaCl, many enzyme molecules were not released from the support. For the MANAE-GLU-GLU support, none of the tested concentrations of NaCl was sufficient to release all enzyme bound to the support. Only using high temperatures, 0.6 M NaCl, and 1 % CTAB or SDS, could the totality of the proteins be released from the support. The results shown in this paper confirm the heterofunctional character of aminated supports modified with glutaraldehyde.

Abstract
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the functional activity and storage viability (at 4 °C and 35 °C) of an immobilized as well as lyophilized multienzyme, viz., pectinase, cellulase, and amylase (PCA) that was produced by Bacillus subtilis NG105 under solid state fermentation (SSF) at 35 ℃ for 10 days using mosambi peel as a substrate. After SSF, the culture media was divided into two aliquots. From the first aliquot, the produced ME was extracted, precipitated, and further immobilized on calcium alginate beads (MEICA). In order to immobilize on mosambi peel matrix, the second aliquot was mixed with acetone and subsequently lyophilized (MELMP). Thus, ready MEICA and MELMP extracted 87.5 and 91.5% juice from mango pulp, respectively. In the reusability study, after 5 cycles, MEICA exhibited 23.8%, 24.4%, and 36.5% PCA activity, respectively. The PCA activity of MEICA and MELMP was examined after 60 days of storage at 4 ℃. The result revealed that the PCA for MEICA declined from 100 to 66%, 58.2%, and 64.5%, respectively, while for MELMP, it dropped from 100 to 84.2%, 82.1%, and 69.7%, respectively. Further, after 60 days of storage, the reduction of total protein content (TPC) in free multienzyme (FME), MEICA, and MELMP was 92.2%, 91.5%, and 36.3% observed, respectively. In the localization study, the maximum levels of multienzyme activity were found in cell exudates. This study demonstrated that immobilizing of multienzyme through lyophilization on waste substrates like mosambi peel boosted its stability and shelf-life along with greatly reducing the cost of products.

Abstract
Laccase immobilized and cross-linked on Fe3S4/earthworm-like mesoporous SiO2 (Fe3S4/EW-mSiO2) was used to degrade methoxychlor (MXC) in aqueous environments. The effects of various parameters on the degradation of MXC were determined using free and immobilized laccase. Immobilization improved the thermal stability and reuse of laccase significantly. Under the conditions of pH 4.5, temperature 40 °C, and reaction time 8 h, the degradation rate of MXC by immobilized laccase reached a maximum value of 40.99% and remained at 1/3 of the original after six cycles. The excellent degradation performance of Fe3S4/EW-mSiO2 was attributable to the pyrite (FeS2) impurity in Fe3S4, which could act as an electron donor in reductive dehalogenation. Sulfide groups and Fe2+ reduced the activation energy of the system resulting in pyrite-assisted degradation of MXC. The degradation mechanism of MXC in aqueous environments by laccase immobilized on Fe3S4/EW-mSiO2 was determined via mass spectroscopy of the degradation products. This study is a new attempt to use pyrite to support immobilized laccase degradation.

Abstract
Global market of food enzymes is held by pectinases, mostly sourced from filamentous fungi via submerged fermentation. Given the one-time use nature of enzymes to clarify juices and wines, there is a crucial need to explore alternatives for enzyme immobilization, enabling their reuse in food applications. In this research, an isolated fungal strain (Penicillium crustosum OR889307) was evaluated as a new potential pectinase producer in submerged fermentation. Additionally, the enzyme was immobilized in magnetic core-shell nanostructures for juice clarification. Findings revealed that Penicillium crustosum exhibited enzymatic activities higher than other Penicillium species, and pectinase production was enhanced with lemon peel as a cosubstrate in submerged fermentation. The enzyme production (548.93 U/mL) was optimized by response surface methodology, determining the optimal conditions at 35 °C and pH 6.0. Subsequently, the enzyme was covalently immobilized on synthesized magnetic core-shell nanoparticles. The immobilized enzyme exhibited superior stability at higher temperatures (50 °C) and acidic conditions (pH 4.5). Finally, the immobilized pectinases decreased 30 % the orange juice turbidity and maintained 84 % of the enzymatic activity after five consecutive cycles. In conclusion, Penicillium crustosum is a proven pectinase producer and these enzymes immobilized on functionalized nanoparticles improve the stability and reusability of pectinase for juice clarification.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization usually make use of nanomaterials to hold up biocatalysis stability in various unamiable reaction conditions, but also lead large discount on enzyme activity. Thus, there are abundant researches focus on how to deal with the relation of enzyme molecules and supports. In this work, a new state of highly active enzymes has been established through facile and novel in situ immobilization and soft template removal method to construct enzyme contained hollow silica nanosphere (catalase@HSN) biocatalysts where enzymes in the cavity exhibit "immobilized but not rigid state". The obtained catalase@HSN was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy et al. Catalase@HSN exhibits excellent activity (about 80 % activity recovery rate) and stability suffers from extreme pH, temperature, and organic solvents. Moreover, the reusability and storage stability of catalase@HSN also are satisfactory. This proposed strategy provides a facile method for preparing biocatalysts under mild conditions, facilitating the applications of immobilized enzyme in the fields of real biocatalytic industry with high apparent activity and passable stability.

Abstract
The nonaqueous catalysis of lipases is significant for synthesis of high pure esters, but they usually behave low catalytic activity due to denaturation and aggregation of enzyme protein in organic phases. To improve the nonaqueous catalysis, the inexpensive copper phthalocyanine was taken as a new carrier on which Pseudomonas cepacia lipase was immobilized by physical absorption, and used for synthesis of hexyl acetate, an important flavor, via transesterification of hexanol and vinyl acetate. Results showed that the desired loading was 10-mg lipase immobilized on 10-mg copper phthalocyanine powder. When the immobilized lipase was employed in the reaction system consisted of 1.5-mL hexanol and 1.5-mL vinyl acetate at 37°C and 160 rpm, the conversion was fivefolds of that catalyzed by native lipase after 1 h, and reached 99.0% after 8 h. In six times of 8-h reuses, the immobilized lipase behaved an activity attenuation rate 1.22% h-1, lower than 1.77% h-1 of native lipase, which meant that the immobilized lipase was more stable. Even at the room temperature and the static state without shaking or stirring, the immobilized lipase still brought conversion 42.8% after 10 h and the native lipase gave 20.1%. Obviously, the immobilized lipase is an available biocatalyst in organic phase and has great potential in food industry.

Abstract
The solvent-free esterification of the free fatty acids (FFAs) obtained by the hydrolysis of castor oil (a non-edible vegetable oil) with 2-ethyl-1-hexanol (a branched fatty alcohol) was catalyzed by different free lipases. Eversa Transform 2.0 (ETL) features surpassed most commercial lipases. Some process parameters were optimized by the Taguchi method (L16'). As a result, a conversion over 95% of the FFAs of castor oil into esters with lubricants properties was achieved under optimized reaction conditions (15 wt% of biocatalyst content, 1:4 molar ratio (FFAs/alcohol), 30 °C, 180 rpm, 96 h). The substrates molar ratio had the highest influence on the dependent variable (conversion at 24 h). FFAs/2-ethyl-1-hexanol esters were characterized regarding the physicochemical and tribological properties. Interestingly, the modification of the FFAs with 2-ethyl-1-hexanol by ETL increased the oxidative stability of the FFAs feedstock from 0.18 h to 16.83 h. The biolubricants presented a lower friction coefficient than the reference commercial mineral lubricant (0.052 ± 0.07 against 0.078 ± 0.04). Under these conditions, ETL catalyzed the oligomerization of ricinoleic acid (a hydroxyl fatty acid) into estolides, reaching a conversion of 25.15% of the initial FFAs (for the first time).

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles were functionalized with polyethylenimine (PEI) and activated with epoxy. This support was used to immobilize Lipase (Eversa® Transform 2.0) (EVS), optimization using the Taguchi method. XRF, SEM, TEM, XRD, FTIR, TGA, and VSM performed the characterizations. The optimal conditions were immobilization yield (I.Y.) of 95.04 ± 0.79 %, time of 15 h, ionic load of 95 mM, protein load of 5 mg/g, and temperature of 25 °C. The maximum loading capacity was 25 mg/g, and its stability in 60 days of storage showed a negligible loss of only 9.53 % of its activity. The biocatalyst demonstrated better stability at varying temperatures than free EVS, maintaining 28 % of its activity at 70 °C. It was feasible to esterify free fatty acids (FFA) from babassu oil with the best reaction of 97.91 % and ten cycles having an efficiency above 50 %. The esterification of produced biolubricant was confirmed by NMR, and it displayed kinematic viscosity and density of 6.052 mm2/s and 0.832 g/cm3, respectively, at 40 °C. The in-silico study showed a binding affinity of -5.8 kcal/mol between EVS and oleic acid, suggesting a stable substrate-lipase combination suitable for esterification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relative low stability, reusability and activity of enzymes made the industrial production of vitamin E succinate (VES) can only be performed with complex processes and high cost using chemical methods. To address these issues, in the present study, an ionic liquids (ILs) modification strategy was developed to improve the activity and stability of lipases in VES synthesis. RESULTS The results showed that the [1-butyl-3-methyl imidazole] [N-acetyl-l-proline] ILs modified Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) has the highest modification degree (48.28%), activity (774 U g-1 ), thermostability and solvent tolerance in three selected modifiers. Additionally, after reaction condition optimization, the highest yield of VES can be improved to 95.18% at 45 °C for 15 h, which was significantly improved compared to some previous studies. CONCLUSION In the present study, a high-efficiency VES synthesis strategy was successfully developed via modification of lipase. Moreover, the mechanism by which ILs modification can enhance the activity and stability of lipase was investigated via both experimental and computational-aided methods. Molecular dynamics simulation suggested that ILs modification changed the geometry of Phe344 from flat to upright, which significantly reshaped and enhanced the size of substrate binding pocket of CRL. It is also agreement with our circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopy results, which suggested that the modification changed the secondary structure of CRL to a certain extent. The larger pocket also endowed the suitable binding pose of succinate, which made the hydrogen bonds between succinate and active site Ser209 become stronger, and thus improving the yield of VES. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Assembling metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into ordered multidimensional porous superstructures promises the encapsulation of enzymes for heterogeneous biocatalysts. However, the full potential of this approach has been limited by the poor stability of enzymes and the uncontrolled assembly of MOF nanoparticles onto suitable supports. In this study, a novel and exceptionally robust Ni-imidazole-based MOF was synthesized in water at room temperature, enabling in situ enzyme encapsulation. Based on this MOF platform, we developed a DNA-directed assembly strategy to achieve the uniform placement of MOF nanoparticles onto bacterial cellulose nanofibers, resulting in a distinctive "branch-fruit" structure. The resulting hybrid materials demonstrated remarkable versatility across various catalytic systems, accommodating natural enzymes, nanoenzymes, and multienzyme cascades, thus showcasing enormous potential as universal microbioreactors. Furthermore, the hierarchical composites facilitated rapid diffusion of the bulky substrate while maintaining the enzyme stability, with ∼3.5-fold higher relative activity compared to the traditional enzyme@MOF immobilized in bacterial cellulose nanofibers.

Abstract
Bilirubin oxidases (BODs) [EC 1.3.3.5 - bilirubin: oxygen oxido-reductase] are enzymes that belong to the multicopper oxidase family and can oxidize bilirubin, diphenols, and aryl amines and reduce the oxygen by direct four-electron transfer from the electrode with almost no electrochemical overpotential. Therefore, BOD is a promising bioelectrocatalyst for (self-powered) biosensors and/or enzymatic fuel cells. The advantages of electrochemically active BOD enzymes include selective biosensing, biocatalysis for efficient energy conversion, and electrosynthesis. Owing to the rise in publications and patents, as well as the expanding interest in BODs for a range of physiological conditions, this Review analyzes scientific literature reports on BOD enzymes and current hypotheses on their bioelectrocatalysis. This Review evaluates the specific research outcomes of the BOD in enzyme (protein) engineering, immobilization strategies, and challenges along with their bioelectrochemical properties, limitations, and applications in the fields of (i) biosensors, (ii) self-powered biosensors, and (iii) biofuel cells for powering bioelectronics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development and fine-tuning of biotechnological processes for fish oil extraction constitute a very important focus to contribute to the development of a food industry based on fish consumption. This work lies in a comparative analysis of the oil extraction yield of Myliobatis goodei livers using free and immobilized enzymes. RESULTS An immobilized biocatalyst was designed from the cell-free extract of a Bacillus sp. Mcn4. A complete factorial design was used to study the components of the bacterial culture medium and select the condition with the highest titers of extracellular enzymatic activities. Wheat bran had a significant effect on the culture medium composition for enzymatic production. The immobilized biocatalyst was designed by covalent binding of the proteins present in the cocktail retaining a percentage of different types of enzymatic activities (Mult.Enz@MgFe2 O4 ). Among the biocatalyst used, Alcalase® 2.4 L and Purazyme® AS 60 L (free commercial proteases) showed extraction yields of 87.39% and 84.25%, respectively, while Mult.Enz@MgFe2 O4 achieved a better one of 89.97%. The oils obtained did not show significant differences in their physical-chemical properties while regarding the fatty acid content, the oil extracted with Purazyme® AS 60 L showed a comparatively lower proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the use of by-products of M. goodei is a valid alternative and encourages the use of immobilized multienzyme biocatalysts for the treatment of complex substrates in the fishing industry. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
It is a challenging and meaningful task to design an enzyme electrochemical biosensor that can maintain high sensitivity while improving stability. In this study, we constructed an enzyme electrochemical biosensor by preparing nanocomposites with multi-stable interface structures. Specifically, the nanocomposite (PGOx@MXene/CS) was prepared by efficient electrostatic assembly of GOx polynanogel (PGOx) onto MXene nanosheets. PGOx could enhance enzyme stability, while the extensive the large specific surface area of MXene could realize the efficient loading of nanocapsules (PGOx) and catalyze the decomposition of toxic intermediate H2O2, thereby reducing its influence on the stability of enzyme. The linear range of the constructed glucose sensor was 0.03-16.5 mM, the sensitivity was 48.98 μA mM-1·cm-2, and the detection limit was 3.1 μM. After 200 cycles, the current still remained at 85.83% of the initial current value. The high sensitivity, excellent selectivity and great reproducibility verified the effectiveness of the system we constructed. The multi-stable enzyme electrochemical biosensor had a wide application prospect in stable and continuous blood glucose detection.

Abstract
Designing complex synthetic materials for enzyme immobilization could unlock the utility of biocatalysis in extreme environments. Inspired by biology, we investigate the use of random copolymer brushes as dynamic immobilization supports that enable supra-biological catalytic performance of immobilized enzymes. This is demonstrated by immobilizing Bacillus subtilis Lipase A on brushes doped with aromatic moieties, which can interact with the lipase through multiple non-covalent interactions. Incorporation of aromatic groups leads to a 50 °C increase in the optimal temperature of lipase, as well as a 50-fold enhancement in enzyme activity. Single-molecule FRET studies reveal that these supports act as biomimetic chaperones by promoting enzyme refolding and stabilizing the enzyme's folded and catalytically active state. This effect is diminished when aromatic residues are mutated out, suggesting the importance of π-stacking and π-cation interactions for stabilization. Our results underscore how unexplored enzyme-support interactions may enable uncharted opportunities for using enzymes in industrial biotransformations.

Abstract
Biodegradation of insoluble biomass such as cellulose via carbohydrase enzymes is an effective approach to break down plant cell walls and extract valuable materials therein. Yet, the high cost and poor reusability of enzymes are practical concerns. We recently proved that immobilizing multiple digestive enzymes on metal-organic materials (MOMs) allows enzymes to be reused via gravimetric separation, improving the cost efficiency of cereal biomass degradation [ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2021, 13, 36, 43085-43093]. However, this strategy cannot be adapted for enzymes whose substrates or products are insoluble (e.g., cellulose crystals). Recently, we described an alternative approach based on magnetic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) using model enzymes/substrates [ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2020, 12, 37, 41794-41801]. Here, we aim to prove the effectiveness of combining these two strategies in cellulose degradation. We immobilized multiple carbohydrase enzymes that cooperate in cellulose degradation via cocrystallization with Ca2+, a carboxylate ligand (BDC) in the absence and presence of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). We then compared the separation efficiency and enzyme reusability of the resultant multienzyme@Ca-BDC and multienzyme@MNP-Ca-BDC composites via gravimetric and magnetic separation, respectively, and found that, although both composites were effective in cellulose degradation in the first round, the multienzyme@MNP-Ca-BDC composites displayed significantly enhanced reusability. This work provides the first experimental demonstration of using magnetic solid supports to immobilize multiple carbohydrase enzymes simultaneously and degrade cellulose and promotes green/sustainable chemistry in three ways: (1) reusing the enzymes saves energy/sources to prepare them, (2) the synthetic conditions are "green" without generating unwanted wastes, and (3) using our composites to degrade cellulose is the first step of extracting valuable materials from sustainable biomasses such as plants whose growth does not rely on nonregeneratable resources.

Abstract
If the appropriate immobilization method and carrier support are not selected, partial decreases in the activity of enzymes may occur after immobilization. Herein, to overcome this challenge, an excitation mechanism that enables energy transfer was proposed. Modified upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) were constructed and the important role of near-infrared (NIR) excitation in enhancing the catalytic activity of the enzyme was demonstrated. For this purpose, UCNPs were first synthesized via the hydrothermal method, functionalized with isocyanate groups, and then, PEG-L-ASNase was immobilized via covalent binding. UCNPs with and without PEG-L-ASNase were extensively characterized by different methods. These supports had immobilization yield and activity efficiency of >96 % and 78 %, respectively. Moreover, immobilized enzymes exhibited improved pH, thermal, and storage stability. In addition, they retained >65 % of their initial activity even after 20 catalytic cycles. Biochemical and histological findings did not indicate a trend of toxicity in rats due to UCNPs. Most importantly, PEG-L-ASNase activity was triggered approximately 5- and 2-fold under in vitro and in vivo conditions, respectively. Overall, it is anticipated that this pioneering work will shed new light on the realistic and promising usage of NIR-excited UCNPs for the immobilization of enzymes in expensive and extensive applications.

Abstract
The incorporation of a non-specific lipase and a sn-1,3 specific one in a single immobilized system can be a promising approach for the exploitation of both lipases. A one-step immobilization platform mediated by an isocyanide-based multi-component reaction was applied to create co-cross-linked enzymes (co-CLEs) of lipases from Rhizomucor miehei (sn-1,3 specific) and Candida antarctica (non-specific). Glutaraldehyde was found to be effective cross-linker by producing specific activity of 16.9 U/mg and immobilization yield of 99 %. High activity recovery of up to 404 % was obtained for immobilized derivatives. Leaking experiment showed covalent nature of the cross-linking processes. BSA had considerable effect on the immobilization process, providing 87-100 % immobilization yields and up to 10 times improvement in the specific activity of the immobilized derivatives. Scanning electron microscopy images showed flower-like and rod-like structures for the CLEs prepared by glutaraldehyde and undecanedicarboxylic acid, respectively. The prepared co-CLEs were examined in non-selective enrichment of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from fish oil, showing capability of releasing up to 100 % of both omega-3 fatty acids within 8 h of the reaction. The reusability of co-CLEs in five successive cycles presented retaining 63-72 % of their initial activities after the fifth reuse cycle in the hydrolysis reaction.

Abstract
Development of immobilized lipase with excellent catalytic performance and low cost is the major challenge for large-scale industrial applications. In this study, green renewable microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) that was hydrophobically modified with D-alanine (Ala) or L-lysine (Lys) was used for immobilizing Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB). The improved catalytic properties were investigated by experimental and computational methods. CALB immobilized on MCC-Ala with higher hydrophobicity showed better catalytic activity than CALB@MCC-Lys because the increased flexibility of the lid region of CALB@MCC-Ala favored the formation of open conformation. Additionally, the low root mean square deviation and the high β-sheet and α-helix contents of CALB@MCC-Ala indicated that the structure became more stable, leading to a significantly enhanced stability (54.80% and 90.90% relative activity at 70 °C and pH 9.0, respectively) and good reusability (48.92% activity after 5 cycles). This study provides a promising avenue to develop immobilized lipase with high catalytic properties for industry applications.

Abstract
The laccase mediator system (LMS) with a broad substrate range has attracted much attention as an efficient approach for water remediation. However, the practical application of LMS is limited due to their high solubility, poor stability and low reusability. Herein, the bimetallic Cu/ZIFs encapsulated laccase was in-situ grown in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) polymer matrix. The PVA-Lac@Cu/ZIFs hydrogel was formed via one freeze-thawing cycle, and its catalytic stability was significantly improved. The mediator was further co-immobilized on the hydrogel, and this hierarchically co-immobilized ABTS/PVA-Lac@Cu/ZIFs hydrogel could avoid the continuous oxidation reaction between laccase and redox mediators. The co-immobilized LMS biocatalyst was used to degrade malachite green (MG), and the degradation rate was up to 100 % within 4 h. More importantly, the LMS could be recycled synchronously from the dye solutions and reused to degrade MG multiple times. The degradation rate remained above 69.4 % after five cycles. Furthermore, the intermediate products were detected via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and the potential degradation pathways were proposed. This study demonstrated the significant potential of utilizing the MOF nanocrystals and hydrogel as a carrier for co-immobilized LMS, and the effective reuse of both laccase and mediator was promising for laccase application in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The creation of a new metal-organic framework (MOF) with a hollow hierarchical porous structure has gained significant attention in the realm of enzyme immobilization. The present work employed a novel, facile, and effective combinatorial technique to synthesize modified MOF (N-PVP/HZIF-8) with a hierarchically porous core-shell structure, allowing for the preservation of the structural integrity of the encapsulated enzyme molecules. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, and other characterization tools were used to fully explore the changes of morphological structure and surface properties in different stages of the preparation of immobilization enzyme CRL-N-PVP/HZIF-8, thus showing the superiority of N-PVP/HZIF-8 as an enzyme immobilization platform and the logic of the immobilization process on the carrier. Additionally, the maximum enzyme loading was 216.3 mg mL-1, the relative activity of CRL-N-PVP/HZIF-8 increased by 15 times compared with the CRL@ZIF-8 immobilized in situ, and exhibited quite good thermal, chemical, and operational stability. With a maximal conversion of 88.8%, CRL-N-PVP/HZIF-8 demonstrated good catalytic performance in the biosynthesis of phytosterol esters as a proof of concept. It is anticipated that this work will offer fresh concepts from several perspectives for the creation of MOF-based immobilized enzymes for biotechnological uses.

Abstract
Enzymes are biological molecules that act as catalysts and speed up the biochemical reactions. The world's biotechnological ventures are development of enzyme productiveness, and advancement of novel techniques for thriving their shelf existence. Nowadays, the most burning questions in enzyme technology are how to improve the enzyme productivity and reuse them. The immobilization of enzymes provides an excellent scope to reuse the enzymes several times to increase productivity. The main aim of the present study is the establishment of an immobilized multi-enzyme bio-system engineering process for the production of High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) with an industrial focus. In this study, multi-enzyme such as α-amylase, glucoamylase and glucose isomerase were immobilized in various support matrices like sodium alginate, sawdust, sugarcane bagasse, rice bran and combination of alginate with cellulosic materials. The activities of the immobilized multi-enzyme system for the production of HFCS from the starch solution were determined. The multi-enzyme immobilized in sodium alginate shows better fructose conversion than free enzyme. Among the support matrices, multi-enzyme immobilized in sawdust produced total 80.74 mg/mL of fructose from starch solution and it was able to be used in several production cycles. On the other hand, multi-enzyme immobilized in combination of sodium alginate and sawdust produced the maximum amount of fructose (total 84.82 mg/mL). The free enzyme produced 17.25 mg/mL of fructose from the starch solution in only a single cycle. In this study a new fixed bed immobilized multi-enzyme bioreactor system was developed for the production of HFCS directly from starch. This finding will create a new opportunity for the application of immobilized multi-enzyme systems in many sectors of industrial biotechnology.

Abstract
The performance of biocathode in an enzymatic biofuel cell (EBFC) in the real application is somehow overlooked. Herein, a wearable and flexible lactic-acid/O2 EBFC enhanced with an air-breathing biocathode is designed to solve the limitation of biocathode that arises from the low solubility and slow mass transfer of the dissolved oxygen. To improve the oxygen supply efficiency for the air-breathing biocathode, a superhydrophobic base electrode creating an efficient air-solid-liquid triphase interface is developed. The designed EBFC with an 'island-bridge' configuration is integrated by assembling the current collectors of air-breathing biocathode and bioanode on a commercial laminating film (LF) screen-printed with a noninterfering circuit. It is found that the biocathode/bioanode area ratio should exceed 9:1 so that the designed EBFC (1A//9C) can achieve the optimal performance. This EBFC delivers an open circuit voltage of ca. 0.75 V and outputs a maximum power density of ca. 1.78 mW cm-2. In addition, a scaled-up EBFC (total bioanode area: 1.5 cm2) successfully powers a self-developed low-power device of heartrate in the pulse operation mode when applied on a volunteer's arm.

Abstract
Enzymes are popular catalysts with many applications, especially in industry. Biocatalyst usage on a large scale is facing some limitations, such as low operational stability, low recyclability, and high enzyme cost. Enzyme immobilization is a beneficial strategy to solve these problems. Bioinformatics tools can often correctly predict immobilization outcomes, resulting in a cost-effective experimental phase with the least time consumed. This study provides an overview of in silico methods predicting immobilization processes via a comprehensive systematic review of published articles till 11 December 2022. It also mentions the strengths and weaknesses of the processes and explains the computational analyses in each method that are required for immobilization assessment. In this regard, Web of Science and Scopus databases were screened to gain relevant publications. After screening the gathered documents (n = 3873), 60 articles were selected for the review. The selected papers have applied in silico procedures including only molecular dynamics (MD) simulations (n = 20), parallel tempering Monte Carlo (PTMC) and MD simulations (n = 3), MD and docking (n = 1), density functional theory (DFT) and MD (n = 1), only docking (n = 11), metal ion binding site prediction (MIB) server and docking (n = 2), docking and DFT (n = 1), docking and analysis of enzyme surfaces (n = 1), only DFT (n = 1), only MIB server (n = 2), analysis of an enzyme structure and surface (n = 12), rational design of immobilized derivatives (RDID) software (n = 3), and dissipative particle dynamics (DPD; n = 2). In most included studies (n = 51), enzyme immobilization was investigated experimentally in addition to in silico evaluation.

Abstract
In the presented study, a variety of hybrid and single nanomaterials of various origins were tested as novel platforms for horseradish peroxidase immobilization. A thorough characterization was performed to establish the suitability of the support materials for immobilization, as well as the activity and stability retention of the biocatalysts, which were analyzed and discussed. The physicochemical characterization of the obtained systems proved successful enzyme deposition on all the presented materials. The immobilization of horseradish peroxidase on all the tested supports occurred with an efficiency above 70%. However, for multi-walled carbon nanotubes and hybrids made of chitosan, magnetic nanoparticles, and selenium ions, it reached up to 90%. For these materials, the immobilization yield exceeded 80%, resulting in high amounts of immobilized enzymes. The produced system showed the same optimal pH and temperature conditions as free enzymes; however, over a wider range of conditions, the immobilized enzymes showed activity of over 50%. Finally, a reusability study and storage stability tests showed that horseradish peroxidase immobilized on a hybrid made of chitosan, magnetic nanoparticles, and selenium ions retained around 80% of its initial activity after 10 repeated catalytic cycles and after 20 days of storage. Of all the tested materials, the most favorable for immobilization was the above-mentioned chitosan-based hybrid material. The selenium additive present in the discussed material gives it supplementary properties that increase the immobilization yield of the enzyme and improve enzyme stability. The obtained results confirm the applicability of these nanomaterials as useful platforms for enzyme immobilization in the contemplation of the structural stability of an enzyme and the high catalytic activity of fabricated biocatalysts.

Abstract
Asparaginase holds significant commercial value as an enzyme in the food and pharmaceutical industries. This study examined the optimum and practical use of the l-asparaginase derived from Pseudomonas aeruginosa HR03. Specifically, the study focused on the effectiveness of the stabilized enzyme when applied to chitosan nanoparticles. The structure, size, and morphology of chitosan nanoparticles were evaluated in relation to the immobilization procedure. This assessment involved the use of several analytical techniques, including FT-IR, DLS, SEM, TEM, and EDS analysis. Subsequently, the durability of the enzyme that has been stabilized was assessed by evaluating its effectiveness under extreme temperatures of 60 and 70 °C, as well as at pH values of 3 and 12. The findings indicate that incorporating chitosan nanoparticles led to enhanced immobilization of the l-asparaginase enzyme. This improvement was observed in terms of long-term stability, stability under crucial temperature and pH conditions, as well as thermal stability. In addition, the optimum temperature increased from 40 to 50 °C, and the optimum pH increased from 8 to 9. Enzyme immobilization led to an increase in Km and a decrease in kcat compared to its free counterpart. Because of its enhanced long-term stability, l-asparaginase immobilization on chitosan nanoparticles may be a potential choice for use in industries that rely on l-asparaginase enzymes, particularly the pharmaceutical and food industries.

Abstract
Human health and the environment are negatively affected by endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), such as bisphenol A. Therefore, developing appropriate remediation methods is essential for efficiently removing phenolic compounds from aqueous solutions. Enzymatic biodegradation is a potential biotechnological approach for responsibly addressing water pollution. With its high catalytic efficiency and few by-products, laccase is an eco-friendly biocatalyst with significant promise for biodegradation. Herein, two novel supporting materials (NH2-PMMA and NH2-PMMA-Gr) were fabricated via the functionalization of poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) polymer using ethylenediamine and reinforced with graphene followed by glutaraldehyde activation. NH2-PMMA and NH2-PMMA-Gr were utilized for laccase immobilization with an immobilization yield (IY%) of 78.3% and 82.5% and an activity yield (AY%) of 81.2% and 85.9%, respectively. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) were used to study the characteristics of fabricated material supports. NH2-PMMA-Gr@laccase exhibited an optimal pH profile from 4.5 to 5.0, while NH2-PMMA@laccase exhibited optimum pH at 5.0 compared to a value of 4.0 for free form. A wider temperature ranges of 40-50 °C was noted for both immobilized laccases compared to a value of 40 °C for the free form. Additionally, it was reported that immobilized laccase outperformed free laccase in terms of substrate affinity and storage stability. NH2-PMMA@laccase and NH2-PMMA-Gr@laccase improved stability by up to 3.9 and 4.6-fold when stored for 30 days at 4 °C and preserved up to 80.5% and 86.7% of relative activity after ten cycles of reuse. Finally, the degradation of BPA was achieved using NH2-PMMA@laccase and NH2-PMMA-Gr@laccase. After five cycles, NH2-PMMA@laccase and NH2-PMMA-Gr@laccase showed that the residual degradation of BPA was 77% and 84.5% using 50 μm of BPA. This study introduces a novel, high-performance material for organic pollution remediation in wastewater that would inspire further progress.

Abstract
A novel, dual-faced, and hierarchical type of Janus hybrid structures (JHSs) was assembled through an in situ growing of lipase@cobalt phosphate sheets on the laccase@copper phosphate sponge-like structures. The chemical and structural information of prepared JHSs was investigated by Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The catalytic activity, storage stability, and reusability of JHSs were then investigated. The SEM-EDX analysis clearly confirmed the asymmetric morphology of the fabricated JHSs with two distinct metal distributions. Under optimized synthesis conditions, the prepared JHSs showed 97.8 % and 100 % of laccase and lipase activity, respectively. Compared to the free biocatalysts, the immobilization resulted in ~ a 2-fold increase in laccase and lipase stability at temperatures of >40 °C. The fabricated JHSs maintained 61 % and 90 % of their original laccase and lipase activity upon 12 successive repetition cycles. Up to 80 % of Reactive Blue-19 (RB-19), an anthraquinone-based vinyl sulphone dye, was removed after 5 h treatment with the prepared JHSs (50 % higher than the free forms of laccase and lipase). The dye removal data fitted very well on the pseudo-second-order kinetic model with a rate constant of 0.8 g mg-1 h-1. Following the bioremoval process, bacterial toxicity also decreased by about 70 %. Therefore, the prepared JHSs provide a facile and sustainable approach for the decolorization, biotransformation, and detoxification of RB-19 by integrating enzymatic oxidation and hydrolysis.

Abstract
α-Amylase is a secretory enzyme commonly found in nature. The α-Amylase enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of α-D-(1,4)-glucosidic bonds in starch, glycogen, and polysaccharides. The chemical characterization of the composite carrier and the immobilized enzyme was performed, and the accuracy of the immobilization was confirmed by FTIR, SEM, and EDS analyses. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicates that the magnetic nanoparticle retained its magnetic properties following the modification process. Based on the Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) outcomes, it was evident that the structural integrity of the FPT nanocomposite remained unchanged at 200°C. The optimal pH was determined to be 5.5, and no alteration was observed following the immobilization process. Purified α-amylases usually lose their activity rapidly above 50°C. In this study, Bacillus licheniformis α-Amylase enzyme was covalently immobilized on the newly synthesized magnetic composite carrier having more azole functional group. For novelty-designed immobilized enzymes, while there is no change in the pH and optimum operating temperature of the enzyme with immobilization, two essential advantages are provided to reduce enzyme costs: the storage stability and reusability are increased. Furthermore, our immobilization technique enhanced enzyme stability when comparing our immobilized enzyme with the reference enzyme in industrial applications. The activity of the immobilized enzyme was higher in presence of 1-3% H2O2.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOD) is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, fermentation products and glucose biosensors for its essential role in catalyzing the conversion of glucose to gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). As H2O2 is the by-product and will have a toxic effect on glucose oxidase, so introducing another enzyme that could consume H2O2 to form an enzymatic cascade reaction is a practical solution. However, this decision will lead to extra expenses and complex condition optimization such as the specific mass ratio, temperature and pH to improve the activity, stability and recyclability. Herein, we describe a mild and versatile strategy by anchoring GOD on carboxyl-activated MOF (Cu-TCPP(Fe)) through DNA-directed immobilization (DDI) technology. Robust MOF nanosheets were utilized as not only the carrier for the immobilization of GOD, but also a peroxidase-like catalyst for the decomposition of H2O2 to reduce its harmful impacts. In this work, the immobilized GOD retained 55.78% of its initial activity after being used for 7 times. More than 60% of the immobilized enzyme's catalytic activity was still maintained after 96 h of being stored at 50 ℃. This study provides a new idea for preparing immobilized enzymes with enhanced stability, fast diffusion and high activity, which can be used in fields such as biocatalysis and biotechnology.

Abstract
β-galactosidase has been immobilized onto novel alginate/tea waste gel beads (Alg/TW) via covalent binding. Alg/TW beads were subjected to chemical modification through amination with polyethyleneimine (PEI) followed by activation with glutaraldehyde (GA). Chemical modification parameters including PEI concentration, PEI pH, and GA concentration were statistically optimized using Response Surface methodology (RSM) based on Box-Behnken Design (BBD). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) results confirmed the great significance of the model that had F value of 37.26 and P value < 0.05. Furthermore, the R2 value (0.9882), Adjusted R2 value (0.9617), and predicted R2 value (0.8130) referred to the high correlation between predicted and experimental values, demonstrating the fitness of the model. In addition, the coefficient of variation (CV) value was 2.90 that pointed to the accuracy of the experiments. The highest immobilization yield (IY) of β-galactosidase (75.1%) was given under optimized conditions of PEI concentration (4%), PEI pH (9.5), and GA concentration (2.5%). Alg/TW beads were characterized by FT-IR, TGA, and SEM techniques at each step of immobilization process. Moreover, the immobilized β-galactosidase revealed a very good reusability as it could be reused for 15 and 20 consecutive cycles keeping 99.7 and 72.1% of its initial activity, respectively. In conclusion, the environmental waste (tea waste) can be used in modern technological industries such as the food and pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
In this paper, using a coprecipitation method to prepare Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4 MNPS), magnetic dialdehyde starch nanoparticles with immobilized phospholipase A1 (MDSNIPLA) were successfully prepared by using green dialdehyde starch (DAS) instead of glutaraldehyde as the crosslinking agent. The Fe3O4 MNPS was characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis method, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) et al. The results showed that the alkaline resistance and acid resistance of the enzyme were improved after the crosslinking of DAS. After repeated use (seven times), the relative activity of MDSNIPLA reached 56 %, and the magnetic dialdehyde starch nanoparticles (MDASN) had good carrier performance. MDSNIPLA was applied to enzymatic hydrolysis of phospholipids in the soybean oil degumming process. The results showed that the acyl transfer rate of sn-2-HPA was 14.01 %, and the content of free fatty acids was 1.144 g/100 g after 2 h reaction at 50 °C and pH 5.0 with appropriate boric acid. The immobilized enzyme has good thermal stability and storage stability, and its application of soybean oil improves the efficiency of the oil.

Abstract
Proteolytic enzymes play a pivotal role in the industry. Still, because of denaturation, the extensive applicability at their level of best catalytic efficiency over a more comprehensive pH range, particularly in alkaline conditions over pH 8, has not been fully developed. On the other hand, enzyme immobilization following a suitable protocol is a long pending issue that determines the conformational stability, specificity, selectivity, enantioselectivity, and activity of the native enzymes at long-range pH. As a bridge between these two findings, in an attempt at a freezing temperature 273-278 K at an alkaline pH, the diazo-functionalized silica gel (SG) surface has been used to rapidly diazo couple pepsin through its inert center, the O-carbon of the phenolic -OH of surface-occupied Tyr residues in a multipoint mode: when all the various protein groups, viz., amino, thiol, phenol, imidazole, carboxy, etc., in the molecular sequence including those belonging to the active sites, remain intact, the inherent inbuilt interactions among themselves remain. Thereby, the macromolecule's global conformation and helicity preserve the status quo. The dimension of the SG-enzyme conjugate confirms as {Si(OSi)4 (H2O)1.03}n {-O-Si(CH3)2-O-C6H4-N═N+}4·{pepsin}·yH2O; where the values of n and y have been determined respectively as 347 and 188. The material performs the catalytic activity much better at 7-8.5 than at pH 2-3.5 and continues for up to six months without any appreciable change.

Abstract
This work presents a framework for evaluating hybrid nanoflowers using Burkholderia cepacia lipase. It was expanded on previous findings by testing lipase hybrid nanoflowers (hNF-lipase) formation over a wide range of pH values (5-9) and buffer concentrations (10-100 mM). The free enzyme activity was compared with that of hNF-lipase. The analysis, performed by molecular docking, described the effect of lipase interaction with copper ions. The morphological characterization of hNF-lipase was performed using scanning electron microscopy. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy performed the physical-chemical characterization. The results show that all hNF-lipase activity presented values higher than that of the free enzyme. Activity is higher at pH 7.4 and has the highest buffer concentration of 100 mM. Molecular docking analysis has been used to understand the effect of enzyme protonation on hNF-lipase formation and identify the main the main binding sites of the enzyme with copper ions. The hNF-lipase nanostructures show the shape of flowers in their micrographs from pH 6 to 8. The spectra of the nanoflowers present peaks typical of the amide regions I and II, current in lipase, and areas with P-O vibrations, confirming the presence of the phosphate group. Therefore, hNF-lipase is an efficient biocatalyst with increased catalytic activity, good nanostructure formation, and improved stability.

Abstract
With the emergence of penicillin resistance, the development of novel antibiotics has become an urgent necessity. Semi-synthetic penicillin has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional penicillin. The demand for the crucial intermediate, 6-aminopicillanic acid (6-APA), is on the rise. Enzyme catalysis is the primary method employed for its production. However, due to certain limitations, the strategy of enzyme immobilization has also gained prominence. The magnetic Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by a rapid-combustion method. Sodium silicate was used to modify the surface of the Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticles to obtain silica-coated nanoparticles (Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4-SiO2). Subsequently, in order to better crosslink PGA, the nanoparticles were modified again with glutaraldehyde to obtain glutaraldehyde crosslinked Ni0.4Cu0.5Zn0.1Fe2O4-SiO2-GA nanoparticles which could immobilize the PGA. The structure of the PGA protein was analyzed by the PyMol program and the immobilization strategy was determined. The conditions of PGA immobilization were investigated, including immobilization time and PGA concentration. Finally, the enzymological properties of the immobilized and free PGA were compared. The optimum catalytic pH of immobilized and free PGA was 8.0, and the optimum catalytic temperature of immobilized PGA was 50°C, 5°C higher than that of free PGA. Immobilized PGA in a certain pH and temperature range showed better catalytic stability. Vmax and Km of immobilized PGA were 0.3727 μmol·min-1 and 0.0436 mol·L-1, and the corresponding free PGA were 0.7325 μmol·min-1 and 0.0227 mol·L-1. After five cycles, the immobilized enzyme activity was still higher than 25%.

Abstract
Chia gum's molecular structure with distinctive properties as well as the alginate-based hydrogel's three-dimensionally cross-linked structure can provide a potent matrix for immobilization of enzyme. Herein, chia gum (CG)/alginate (A)-polymeric complex was synthesized and employed as a support material for the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). HRP was successfully immobilized on the developed ACG-polymeric support, and the highest immobilization recovery (75%) was observed at 1.0% CG and 2% A, pH 7.0, and 50 units of the enzyme. The structure, morphology, and thermal properties of the prepared ACG-HRP were demonstrated using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscope, and Thermogravimetric (TGA) analyses. ACG-HRP showed a good reusability (60%) over ten reuses. The immobilized ACG-HRP displayed an acidic pH optimum (6.0), a higher temperature optimum (50 °C), and improved thermal stability (30-50 °C) compared to the soluble HRP at pH 7.0, 40 °C and (30-40 °C), respectively. ACG-HRP has a lower affinity for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and guaiacol and a higher oxidizing affinity for a number of phenolic substrates. The ACG-HRP demonstrated greater resistance to heavy metals, isopropanol, urea, Triton X-100, and urea, as well as improved efficiency for eliminating phenol and p-chlorophenol. The developed ACG-polymeric support provided improved enzyme properties, allowed the reuse of the immobilized HRP in 10 cycles, and made it promising for several biotechnological applications.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization on a metal-organic framework (enzyme@MOF) has been proven to be a promising strategy for boosting catalysis and biosensing applications. However, promoting the catalytic performance of polymer-modified enzyme@MOF composites remains an ongoing challenge. Herein, a protocol for enzyme immobilization was designed by using a smart polymer-modified MOF (UiO-66-NH2, UN) as the support. Through in situ polymerization, the dual stimulus-responsive poly(N-2-dimethylamino ethyl methacrylate) (PDM) was prepared. The PDM as a "soft cage" protected the immobilized glucose oxidase (GOx)-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on the surface of the rigid UN. The confinement effect was generated by varying the temperature and pH, thereby improving the catalytic activity of the GOx-HRP@UN-PDM composites. In comparison with free enzymes, the fabricated composites exhibited an 8.9-fold enhancement in catalytic performance (Vmax) at pH 5.0 and 49 °C. Furthermore, relying on a cascade reaction generated in the composites, an assay was developed for the visual detection of glucose in rat serum. This study introduces a groundbreaking approach for the construction of smart enzyme@MOF-polymer composites with high catalytic activity for sensitive monitoring of biomolecules.
