Abstract
Disclosed is a process whereby enzymes are immobilized on activated granular carbon. The process involves treating the carbon with a polyamine compound having pendant amino groups to cause the polyamine to adhere to the carbon leaving pendant amine groups free to further react. The free amine groups are derivatized by treatment with a difunctional compound having amine reactive moieties, so that free amine groups of the enzyme can be covalently bound to the polyamine via the amine reactive compound. By this method, enzymes can be immobilized onto granular carbon which provides a support having excellent physical properties.
