“…Compared with their free counterparts, immobilized laccases are more tolerant to high temperatures and storage and can be reused multiple times (Fernández-Fernández et al, 2013; Asgher et al, 2014), they are also more resistant to inhibitors such as NaCl (Yang et al, 2016c). Immobilization sometimes improves the catalytic activity of laccases (Arsenault et al, 2011; Sinirlioglu et al, 2013; Kumar et al, 2014) despite the common concern of reduced enzyme flexibility, steric hindrance and diffusion limitations (Sheldon, 2011; Talekar et al, 2013). Readers can refer to reviews on preparation and applications of immobilized laccases (Ba et al, 2013; Fernández-Fernández et al, 2013; Asgher et al, 2014).…”
