Abstract

Entrapment of halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) loaded with enzyme, into a polymer matrix (PVA/Alg), is a way to produce an environment surrounding the adsorbed enzyme molecules which improves the enzyme properties such as storage and operational stability. Hence, in this study, we optimised the factors affecting lipase adsorption onto halloysite nanotubes including halloysite amounts (5, 42.5 and 80 mg), lipase concentrations (30, 90 and 150 µg/ml), temperatures (5, 20 and 35 °C) and adsorption times (30, 165 and 300 min). The optimal conditions were determined as an halloysite amount of 50 to 80 mg, a lipase concentration of 30 to 57 μg/ml, an adsorption temperature of 20 °C and an adsorption time of 165 min, which resulted in a specific activity and adsorption efficiency of 15,000 (U/g protein) and 70%, respectively. Then, lipase adsorbed under optimal conditions was entrapped in a PVA/Alg hydrogel. The formation mechanism of immobilized lipase was investigated by FESEM and FTIR. Subsequent entrapment of adsorbed lipase improved the lipase storage and operational stability. Km, Vmax, Kcat and Kcat/Km values showed an increase in the entrapped HNT-lipase performance in comparison with the free and adsorbed lipase.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
