The document summarizes research on efficiently immobilizing a milk clotting enzyme (MCE) produced by Bacillus sphaericus. The MCE was immobilized by adsorption on silica gel, achieving 70% immobilization with 73% activity retained, which was 13% higher than free enzyme. Optimum conditions were pH 5, 4 hour immobilization time, and 2.5 mg/mL enzyme concentration. The immobilized enzyme maintained stability over 60 days at 4°C and room temperature, while free enzyme activity decreased substantially. Adsorption is a common immobilization method that physically binds enzyme to an inorganic carrier like silica gel via weak interactions, allowing potential for recycling and reuse of the immobilized enzyme

BACILLUS SPHAERICUS Milk Clotting Enzyme (MCE) Milk-clotting enzymes, obtained from animal, plant, and microbial sources have been used since antiquity for the manufacture of foods especially on cheese manufacturing. MCE examples: papain, trypsin, chymotrypsin, pancreatin and chymosin MCE Immobilization Since the recovery yield and reusability of free enzymes as industrial catalysts are quite limited, attention has been paid to enzyme immobilization which may offer advantages over soluble native or modified enzymes. Enzyme immobilization allows : (i) continuous operation of the enzymatic processes (ii) controlled product formation (iii) rapid termination of reactions (iv) easy separation from reaction mixture (v) improved enzyme stability (vi) greater variety of engineering designs Some MCE Immobilization: MCE produced by Bacillus circulans 25 and Bacillus licheniformis immobilized on chitosan and Amberlite In the study, MCE enzyme is produced by Bacillus sphaericus, this was immobilized by adsorption on silica gel. This was efficiently immobilized with 70% immobilization degree and 73% activity retained. The immobilized enzyme was 13% higher than the free enzyme. Optimum conditions in immobilization process: The optimum pH value for enzyme immobilization on silica gel was 5 The optimum time required was 4 hours Optimum enzyme concentration was 2.5 mg protein (0.5 mg/mL The immobilized enzyme was stable when stored at 4C and room temp. A 60% loss of activity was observed for the free enzyme after storage for 60 days at 4C. This might be due to protein-protein interaction (autolysis) On the other hand, MCE immobilized on silica gel lost only 10% of its activity under the same conditions.. This enhanced stability is probably a result of the prevention of autolysis by immobilization At room temperature (25C), the free enzyme completely lost its activity in 30 days while the immobilized enzyme still retained about 70% of its activity after storage for 60 days. ADSORPTION Adsorption
Involves physical binding of the enzyme on the carrier matrix
Carrier may be organic or inorganic The process incolves weak interactions like van der waals or hydrogen bonds Carriers: Silica, bentonite, cellulose etc Example: Catalase and Invertase Adsorption Advantages Disadvantages
Simple and economical Relatively low surface
Limited Loss of Activity area for binding Can be recycled, Exposure of enzyme to regenerated and reused microbial attack Yield are often low due to inactivation and desorption.
