Characteristics of Immobilized Biocatalysts

  • Chapter
Immobilized Biocatalysts

Abstract

The influence of temperature on the activity of native and immobilized biocatalysts is usually represented in the form of so-called optimum curves (see Fig. 32), in which activity is plotted against temperature. Often, the activity is not given in international units but as the relative activity, i.e., the quotient of the actual activity and the highest activity measured.
