Abstract: | Papain (EC 3.4.22.2) has been chemically modified using two novel reagents including different anhydrides of 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic
and pyromellitic acids. Then, the modified papain was immobilized on the activated cotton fabric by a two-step method. The
number of free amino groups in the modified protein was investigated through the 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid method.
Energy dispersive spectrometer was used to characterize papain immobilization. Some parameters of both modified and native
papain immobilized on cotton fabric, such as optimum temperature, optimum pH, and the stabilities for reservation in various
detergents were studied and compared. The resultant papain had its optimum pH shifted from 6.0 to 9.0. Compared with immobilized
native papain, the thermal stability and the resistance to alkali and washing detergent of immobilized modified enzyme were
improved considerably. When the concentration of detergent was 20 mg/ml, the activity of the immobilized pyromellitic papain
retained about 40% of its original activity, whereas the native papain was almost inhibited. This work demonstrated that the
cotton fabric immobilized modified papain has potential applications in the functional textiles field. |
