Abstract

Phospholipases C (PLCs) from B. cereus 318 and recombinant Pichia pastoris were immobilized on sol-gel coated glass beads. The pH and temperature on immobilized PLC activity were investigated. Operational and storage stability of the immobilized PLCs was measured by spectro- photometric assay. The PLCs immobilized on sol-gel coated glass beads were photographed by scanning electron microscope (SEM).
