Improving the Thermostability and Optimal Temperature of a Lipase from the Hyperthermophilic Archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus by Covalent Immobilization

Figure 1

Stability at 70°C of the enzyme immobilized on different supports (hydrophobic supports and covalent bonding). The biocatalysts were incubated at different times and the residual activities were measured using pNPB as substrate.
