Abstract

Lipase A from Candida antarctica (CalA) and β-glucosidase from Thermotoga maritima (bgl) were covalently co-immobilized onto the surface of chitosan-coated magnetic nanoparticles (CS-MNPs). Several parameters regarding the co-immobilization procedure (glutaraldehyde concentration, incubation time, CS-MNPs to enzyme mass ratio and bgl to CalA mass ratio) were evaluated and optimized. The developed nanobiocatalyst was characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. Biochemical parameters such as kinetic constants and thermal stability were also evaluated. The nanobiocatalytic system revealed an increase in the Km constant followed by a decrease in Vmax value compared with the native enzymes, while a significant increase (>5-fold higher) of the thermal stability of the immobilized CalA, both in individual and in co-immobilized form, was observed after 24 h incubation at 60 °C. Finally, the nanobiocatalyst was efficiently applied for the bioconversion of oleuropein to hydroxytyrosol, one of the most powerful naturally derived antioxidants, and it could be recycled for up to 10 reaction cycles (240 h of constant operation) at 60 °C, retaining more than 50% of its initial activity.
