Article: Studies from M.M.M. Elnashar and colleagues provide new data on enzyme research.

According to recent research published in the journal Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, "Lactose has been hydrolyzed using covalently immobilized beta-galactosidase on thermally stable carrageenan coated with chitosan (hydrogel). The hydrogel's mode of interaction was proven by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Schiff's base formation."

"The DSC thermogram proved the formation of a strong polyelectrolyte complex between carrageenan and chitosan followed by glutaraldehyde as they formed one single peak. The modification of carrageenan improved the gel's thermal stability in solutions from 35 degrees C to ...
