Long-term preservation of α-amylase activity in highly concentrated aqueous solutions of imidazolium ionic liquid

The activity of the α-amylase enzyme incubated in aqueous solutions with a high concentration (80.2% w/v) of imidazolium ionic liquid, [C4C1im]Br, has been studied. Contrary to the complete deactivation hitherto reported in the literature, a way is found to preserve the enzyme, by adding the appropr...
