Immobilisation of Enzymes

Enzymes are attractive tools in biotechnology for example for the production of complex organic compounds, in chemical analysis and medical diagnostics for the quantitative determination of specific compounds in complex matrices, but also in bioelectrochemistry as components of biofuel cells. In all application areas the use of immobilised enzymes is preferred over the use of enzyme solutions, as this allows multiple uses and easy handling of the enzyme. The results are bioreactors with immobilised enzymes and enzyme sensor systems, respectively.
