Abstract
Method for preparation of a bagasse based matrix for immobilisation of enzymes has been developed. alpha-Rhamnosidase has been immobilised o n the bagasse based matrix and Km, pH and temperature optima of the im mobilised enzyme preparation have been found to be 1.25 KM, 3.8 and 60 degrees C respectively. These values compare well. with the reported values of Km, pH and temperature optima of 1,52 mM, 3,5 and 57 degrees C respectively for the enzyme in solution phase.
