Hydrogel-Based Enzyme and Cofactor Co-Immobilization for Efficient Continuous Transamination in a Microbioreactor

A microbioreactor was developed in which selected amine transaminase was immobilized together with the cofactor pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) to allow efficient continuous transamination. The enzyme and cofactor were retained in a porous copolymeric hydrogel matrix formed in a two-plate microreactor wit...
