The immobilization of catalase onto chitosan and chitosan-bentonite was investigated and immobilization yield of 95.91 and 95.26 was obtained respectively. The optimum pH and temperature were found as 7.5 and 8.0 at 40 °C for free and immobilized enzyme. The value of V<sub>max</sub> decreased by 33,000-26,300, 24,500 μmol (min mg protein)<sup>-1</sup> and K<sub>m</sub> increased by 12.5-25 and 20 mM for free and immobilized on chitosan and chitosan-bentonite respectively. The thermal stability, ...[more]
