D. Norouzian et al., Various techniques used to immobilize naringinase produced by Penicillium decombens PTCC 5248, WORLD J MIC, 15(4), 1999, pp. 501-502
Naringinase produced by Penicillum decombens PTCC 5248 was immobilized by e
ntrapping it in calcium alginate beads, hen egg white, gelatin open pore ma
trix and covalently attaching it to activated seeds of Ocimum basilicum. Op
timum pH and temperature were found to be 4, 4.5, 4.5, 3.5 and 65 degrees C
, 60 degrees C respectively for enzyme immobilized by each technique mentio
ned. Naringinase immobilized onto activated seeds of Ocimum basilicum was a
ctive for 7 days.
