Enzymatic immobilization emerges as a viable solution, enabling enzyme reuse. This study investigated the immobilization of an enzymatic extract obtained from Moniliophthora perniciosa fermentation in calcium alginate spheres using the direct trapping method. Initial tests assessed β-glucosidase activity, showing that a higher concentration of calcium chloride (1 M) alongside larger diameter spheres yielded improved results. The immobilized enzyme was reused for up to 17 cycles without significant loss of activity. The percentage of reducing sugars after 48-h hydrolysis with the supplemented enzymatic extract was 226%, doubling the value achieved with only the free enzymatic extract. The immobilized enzyme retained 50% of its initial activity after 1 h at 80 °C, demonstrating higher activity at pH 6 and 60 °C. These findings suggest that this immobilization technique is simple, economically viable, and effective for the hydrolysis of pretreated sugarcane bagasse.HIGHLIGHTSSuccessful immobilization of M. perniciosa enzymatic extract achieved through direct entrapment in calcium alginate.Immobilized β-glucosidase demonstrates sustained activity over 16 reuse cycles, showcasing the potential for cost-effective bioconversion processes.Enhanced hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse observed with immobilized enzymatic extract, indicating a promising approach for improved biomass utilization.Keywords: β-Glucosidase immobilizationmoniliophthora perniciosacalcium alginate spheressugarcane bagasse hydrolysisenzymatic bioconversionlignocellulosic ethanolreducing sugars AcknowledgmentsWe thank the Biotechnology Graduate Program of State University of Feira de Santana (UEFS/FIOCRUZ), the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) for a doctoral scholarship (88882.447813/2019-01), the Bahia State Research Support Foundation (FAPESB), and the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq).Authors’ contributionsAll authors contributed to the study conception and design.
