[Immobilization of pectawamorine G10x on silichromes].

Immobilization of pectawamorine G10x on silochromes, using cyanuric chloride, 2,4-toluylene diisocyanate, glutaric dialdehyde, thionyl chloride, phosphorus tribromide, titanium tetrachloride, zirconium oxychloride and hafnium oxychloride was studied. The use of glutaric dialdehyde assured the strongest binding and the preatest stability of activity. Properties of the native pectawamorine G10x and immobilized preparations were studied on a comparative basis. Pectawamorine G10x immobilized by means of hafnium oxychloride showed increased stability when stored at 5 degrees C and used repeatedly. In every case, except for cyanuric chloride and glutaric dialdehyde, maximum activity was at a temperature 10 degrees C higher than for the native enzyme, and optimum pH varied for the preparations with different binding reagents.
