New enzymatic immobilized biocatalysts for detoxification of organophosphorus compounds

New immobilized biocatalysts based on phosphotriesterase and porous fabric materials impregnated with chemically cross-linked chitosan and sulphate chitosan gels were investigated. Analysis of the rheological characteristics of enzyme-containing gels confirmed their high plasticity and mechanical strength, while scanning electron microscopy verified their macroporous structure. The fabric matrix could absorb and retain a large amount of liquid thereby increasing its own weight 3.5–4.5 fold. The catalytic characteristics of the immobilized biocatalyst hydrolyzing Paraoxon, Coumaphos, Chlorpyrifos and Diisopropyl fluorophosphate were investigated. The catalytic efficacy of the soluble enzyme was 3.0–5.5-times higher compared to the immobilized form mainly due to the lower Km values. With constant 55–60% humidity the biocatalyst retained 77% and 67–70% activity after 50-day storage at 4°C and 23°C, respectively. Benzalkonium chloride appeared to be an appropriate preservative for long-term storage of immobilized biocatalyst in a wet state.
