Synthesis and Characterization of Immobilized Lipase (Aspergillus niger) on Fe3O4 Nanoparticles

A retrievable nanostructure heterogeneous catalyst, based on lipase (lipase from the fungus Aspergillus niger), namely Fe3O4-bonded lipase (Fe3O4 NPs@ lipase) was prepared in nano size and fully characterized by several techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Also activity of bounded lipase was examined
