Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) as a matrix for immobilization of lipase by Yunus, W. M. Z. Wan, Salleh, A. B., Ismail, A., Ampon, K., Razak, C. N. A., Basri, M.

“…The best result based on hydrolytic activity was obtained by adsorption of the purified unbuffered enzyme solution onto PMMA beads without any modification of the beads. Prolonged exposure of the protein to the beads increased its adsorption but the expressed activity decreased after 1 h of exposure. …”
