Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope, thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction characterizations confirmed that the organic-inorganic nanocomposite support modified by DAC was successfully prepared. Enzymology experiments confirmed that high enzyme loading (60.9 mg/g). The stability and reusability of immobilized CRL (Fe3O4-CS-DAC-SDS-CRL) were significantly improved simultaneously. Circular dichroism analysis revealed that the active conformation of immobilized CRL was maintained well. Results demonstrated that the inorganic-organic nanocomposite modified by carbohydrate polymer derivatives could be used as an ideal support for enzyme immobilization.
