Synthesis of Mesoporous Silica Nanowires and Their Application in Enzyme Immobilization

Hydrophobic mesoporous silica nanowires were synthesis and then employed as support for immobilization of lipase from Candida antarctica via covalent bonding (CALB@MSW). The parameters were optimized and the optimum conditions were as follows: GA concentration 5.5 wt.%, activation time 60 min and CA...

Description
Summary:Hydrophobic mesoporous silica nanowires were synthesis and then employed as support for immobilization of lipase from Candida antarctica via covalent bonding (CALB@MSW). The parameters were optimized and the optimum conditions were as follows: GA concentration 5.5 wt.%, activation time 60 min and CALB concentration 4 mg/mL. Under these conditions, the protein loading and specific activity of CALB@MSW were 138.3 mg/gsupport and 41.1 U/mgsupport, respectively. Compared with free CALB, CALB@MSW showed better thermal stability and pH stability. The maximum yield of biodiesel catalytic by CALB@MSW was 93.4 %. After reused 8 times, CALB@MSW still remained 95.75 % initial activity showing better stability than free CALB.
