Food production in green crops is severely limited by low activity and poor specificity of D-ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO) in natural photosynthesis (NPS). This work presents a scientific solution to overcome this problem by immobilizing RuBisCO into a microfluidic reactor, which demonstrates a continuous production of glucose precursor at 13.8 μmol g<sup>-1</sup> RuBisCO min<sup>-1</sup> from CO<sub>2</sub> and ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate. Experiments show that the RuB ...[more]
