Abstract
Enzymatically active Protein-whole microbial cell complex membranes suitable for effecting enzymatic reactions are prepared by forming a dispersion containing synthetic polypeptide or natural protein macromolecules and whole microbial cells, casting a membrane from the dispersion and drying the membrane. In an alternative embodiment, the membranes are formed by electro-codeposition from a dispersion containing the macromolecules and cells. It is desirable to pre-treat the microbial cells to destroy proteolytic activity of the cells to prevent the cells from autolyzing and from destroying the membrane.
