Abstract:
Mesoporous silicates (MPS) possess ordered pore structures with pore diameters sufficiently large to accommodate a range of enzymes. The successful immobilization of an enzyme on MPS usually requires modification of the surface of MPS to optimize the interactions between the support and the enzyme. Recent developments on the functionalization of MPS for the immobilization of enzymes are described in this review.

The activity and stability of Candida antartica lipase B (CALB) and cytochrome c immobilised on to, SBA-15 and a porous spherical silicate material (PPS), were examined. The materials possess similar pore diameters but ...

The specific binding of streptavidin to biotinylated protein A was demonstrated using a microwave detection system. In control experiments, the degree of non-specific binding was negligible. The method of detection was ...
The objective of this research is to synthesise mesoporous silicates, incorporate
metal complexes on to the surface of the silicates post synthesis and utilise these
materials for the immobilisation of histidine-tagged ...
Background: Streptococcus equi ssp. equi is the causative agent of ‘Strangles’ in horses. This is a debilitating
condition leading to economic loss, yard closures and cancellation of equestrian events. There are ...
