Immobilization of Alkaline phosphatase on biopolymeric support

Abstract

This study is an investigation to obtain new nanocomposites materials, composed of products based on alkaline phosphatase and natural biopolymers, collagen and chitosan gel. The scaffolds were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and water adsorption. The equilibrium Swelling was determined. The results obtained are promissing regarding the use of these supports to alkaline phosphatase (ALP) immobilization, the enzyme having a large practical use, especially in different skin tissue engineering.
