Aspergillus subolivaceus dextranase is immobilized on several carriers by entrapment and covalent binding with cross-linking. Dextranase immobilized on BSA with a cross-linking agent shows the highest activity and considerable immobilization yield (66.7%). The optimum pH of the immobilized enzyme is shifted to pH 6.0 as compared with the free enzyme (pH 5.5). The optimum temperature of the reaction is resulted at 60 degrees C for both free and immobilized enzyme. Thermal and pH stability are significantly improved by the immobilization process. The calculated K-m of the immobilized dextranase (14.24 mg mL(-1)) is higher than that of the free dextranase (11.47 mg mL(-1)), while V-max of the immobilized enzyme (2.80 U mu g protein(-1)) is lower than that of the free dextranase (11.75 U mu g protein(-1)). The immobilized enzyme was able to retain 76% of the initial catalytic activity after 5.0 cycles.
