Abstract:Eggshells capacity as supporting material for immobilisation of Candida rugosa Type VII lipase (CRL) was tested. Different parameters for the immobilisation of eggshells were studied including the temperature (30-50°C), pH of buffer the solution (pH 5-8), particle size of the eggshells (≤1mm, 1-2mm and 2-4mm), immobilisation time (1-4 hr) and glutaraldehyde concentration (0.30-3.00%, v/v). The best immobilisation conditions obtained were ≤1mm size of the eggshells added with 0.75% of glutaraldehyde at pH buffe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
