Abstract
In this study, novel magnetic beads were prepared from glycidylmethacrylate (GMA) and styrene (ST) via suspension polymerization with cyclohexanol and lauryl alcohol as porogenic agent. The magnetic poly (GMA-ST) beads were characterized with scanning electron microscope (SEM), magnetic scales and X-ray spectroscopy. The magnetic susceptibility of the porous poly (GMA-ST) beads was 1.25 × 10-4 cm3/g. Under the optimum conditions, b-galactosidase was immobilized on the magnetic poly (GMA-ST) beads described above, the results obtained showed that the activity of the immobilized b-galactosidase reached 412.09 U/g and the activity recovery was 61.32 %. Finally, the basic properties of the immobilized enzyme were determined separately and satisfactory results were obtained in pH stability, thermal stability, operational stability and Michaelis constants Km.
