Abstract

Enzymes and protein’s immobilization on magnetic nano supports is emerging as a promising candidate in the food, medical field, and areas of environmental studies. This work presents a study on purified Bacillus thermoamylovorans lipase (BTL) by utilizing tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)-modified magnesium nano ferrite (MgNF) of 20 nm size. Its structural and morphological studies were investigated by powder X-ray diffractometry, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, etc. Binding of BTL with MgNF was supported by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Magnetic behavior was examined by the vibrational sample magnetometer and Mössbauer spectrometer graphs. The enzymatic activity of BTL before and after immobilization was studied at different temperatures and reaction time. As per the Lineweaver-Burk plot, immobilized lipase has more biological affinity for fatty acids in comparison to the free lipase, and Kmax values of immobilized and free BTL were computed as 6.6 and 7.5 mM respectively, with excellent reusability(> 50%) even till 13 consecutive assay runs.

in organic and inorganic reactions [3–6]. Ergo, the heterogeneous catalyst immobilization on the nano substrates provides effortless control in the synthesis process and is a convenient option for biochemical and pharmaceutical applications [7–9]. Enzymes are eminently pervasive nano range biocatalysts which are ordinarily explored due to their phenomenal features such as chemical selectiveness, the acceleration rate, selectivity towards substrate, and regional preference in enzyme facilitate reactions. For direct heterogeneous support and enzyme immobilization, the deformation of active catalytic sites is the common concern of researchers, which generally out turn a loss of activity [9]. In this context, functionalized iron oxide-based recyclable nanomaterial like ferrites [2, 10] are acquiring a lot of considerations due to their exclusive magnetic properties, high exterior surface to volume proportion, low toxicity, and the chemically resistant structure that help in developing an advan
