Production of α-amylase by immobilized bacillus subtilis in polymeric polyHIPE matrix

The microcellular polymer known as polyHIPE polymer (PHP), with modified physico-chemical characteristics, was developed as a cell matrix for the immobilization of the starch-degrading bacterium, Bacillus subtilis. Suspension of B. subtilis spores was inoculated into a synthesized PHP matrix which i...

description The microcellular polymer known as polyHIPE polymer (PHP), with modified physico-chemical characteristics, was developed as a cell matrix for the immobilization of the starch-degrading bacterium, Bacillus subtilis. Suspension of B. subtilis spores was inoculated into a synthesized PHP matrix which is chemically modified, and this PHP matrix was named sulphonated PHPs (SPHPs).
