The water-soluble polyphosphazene possessing ether side groups was exposed to ${\gamma}-rays$ to prepare hydrogens with good water-swellability. The physical strength of these hydrogels could be controlled by irradiation dose of ${\gamma}-rays$. Trypsin and water-soluble polyphosphazene were irradiated together by ${\gamma}-rays$ for entrapment of enzymes into hydrogel networks. The activities of immobilized trypsin were examined spectrophotometrically after the reaction with N-${\alpha}$-benzoyl-1-arginine-p-nitroanilide in phosphate buffer. The immobilized trypsin was found to have good activity yield and suability after at least 500 hours.

Spherical micro silica sol-gel immobilized enzyme beads were prepared in an emulsion system using cyclohexanone and Triton-X 114. The beads were used for the in situ immobilization of transaminase, trypsin, and lipase. Immobilization during the sol to gel phase transition was investigated to determine the effect of the emulsifying solvents, surfactants, and mixing process on the formation of spherical micro sol-gel enzyme beads and their catalytic activity. The different combinations of sol-gel precursors affected both activity and the stability of the enzymes, which suggests that each enzyme has a unique preference for the silica gel matrix dependent upon the characteristics of the precursors. The resulting enzyme-entrapped micronsized beads were characterized and utilized for several enzyme reaction cycles. These results indicated improved stability compared to the conventional crushed form silica sol-gel immobilized enzyme systems.

Immobilization of lysozyme on chitosan non-woven using glutaraldehyde(GA) was investigated. For this, 100 % chitosan non-woven was prepared as novel support for the enzyme immobilization. In addition, free lysozyme activity was examined depending on various pH and temperature by measuring time. Moreover, the optimum immobilization conditions depending on various pH, temperature, immobilization time and lysozyme concentration was evaluated. In addition, thermal stability and storage stability of immobilized lysozyme were measured. The characteristics of immobilized lysozyme was examined by FT-IR, surface morphology, and MTT assay. The results are follows: the optimal immobilization of lysozyme were pH 7.0, $25^{\circ}C$, lysozyme concentration 1.5 mg/ml, immobilization time 240 min. The immobilized lysozyme showed higher thermal stability than the free trypsin. The immobilized lysozyme activity was retained 80 % of its initial activity at $4^{\circ}C$ over 30 days of storage. The lysozyme was immobilized effectively on chitosan non-woven by observation of surface morphology.

Dendrimers are a novel class of nonlinear polymers and due to their extensive applications in different fields, called versatile polymers. Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are one of the most important dendrimers that have many applications in nanobiotechnology and industry. Generally aldehyde terminated dendrimers are prepared by activation of amine terminated dendrimers by glutaraldehyde which has two problems, toxicity and possibility of crosslink formation. In this study, novel aldehyde-terminated PAMAM dendrimer was prepared and used for covalent immobilization of trypsin by the aim of finding a special reagent which can prevent crosslinking and deactivation of the enzyme. For this purpose aminoacetaldehydedimethylacetal (AADA) was used as spacer group between aldehyde-terminated PAMAM and trypsin.The findings of this study showed that immobilization of trypsin not only resulted higher optimal temperature, but also increased the thermal stability of the immobilized enzyme in comparison to the free enzyme.

Magnetic nanoparticles prepared from an alkaline solution of divalent and trivalent iron ions could covalently bind protein via the activation of Nethyl-N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC). Trypsin and avidin were taken as the model proteins for the formation of protein-nanoparticle conjugates. The immobilized yield of protein increased with molar ratio of EDC/nanoparticie. Higher concentrations of added protein could yield higher immobilized protein densities on the particles. In contrast to EDC, the yields of protein immobilization via the a ctivation of cyanamide were relatively lower. Nanoparticles bound with avidin could attach a single-stranded DNA through the avidin-biotin interaction and hybridize with a DNA probe. The DNA hybridization was confirmed by fluorescence microscopy observations. Immobilized DNA on nanoparticles by this technique may have widespread applicability to the detection of specific nucleic acid sequence and targeting of DNA to particular cells.

Various peptides derived from food are among the most potent physiologically active agents known, and include anticancer peptides, angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitor exhibiting antihypertension action, opioid peptides, antithrombotic peptides, hypocholesterolemic peptides, immunomodulators, calcium absorption enhancers, and other peptides. Hydrophobic peptides extracted from a Cheddar-type cheese slurry were fractionated by gel chromatography and repeated HPLC. A peptide fraction from HPLC showed high cytotoxicity on the tumor cell lines such as a human colon carcinoma, and comprised of Tyr, Ser, Leu, Gly, and others. Hypocholesterolemic peptides were isolated from peptic hydrolyzates of casein and soy proteins. Macropeptides of 1,000${\sim}$5,000 dalton were effective on reducing the cholesterol level of mouse serum. Peptides showing high Krigbaum hydrophobicity and ANS surface hydrophobicity resulted in high hypocholesterolemic effect and fecal steroid concentrations. Caseinomacropeptides(CMP) were isolated from whey powder and treated with soluble and immobilized trypsin to obtain antithrombotic peptides. One fraction from the CMP hydrolyzed with immobilized trypsin for 24h exhibited high antithrombotic activity with 52.5% inhibition of platelet aggregation. These result suggested that peptides from various milk products could be utilized as a good bioactive agents for developing health functional foods.

Peptides are frequently studied as candidates for new drug development. Recently, synthesized peptide library is screened for a certain functionality on a microarray biochip format. In this study, in order to replace the conventional cellulose membrane with glass for a microarray chip substrate for peptide library screening, we modified the glass surface from amines to thiols and covalently immobilized the peptides. Using trypsin-FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate) conjugate that could specifically bind to a trypsin binding domain consisting of a 7-amino acid peptide, we checked the degree of surface modification. Because of the relatively lower hydrophilicity and reduced surface roughness, the conjugation reaction to the glass required a longer reaction time and a higher temperature. It took approximately 12 hr for the reaction to be completed. From the fluorescence signal intensity, we could differentiate between the target and the control peptides. This difference was confirmed by a separate experiment using QCM. Furthermore, a smaller volume and higher concentration of a spot showed a higher fluorescence intensity. These data would provide the basic conditions for the development of microarray peptide biochips.

In order to utilize tuna pyloric caeca among fish intestines wasted when treated raw fish in fish processing manufactory, a crude enzyme with high proteolytic activity was extracted and its optimum condition were investigated. An immobilized enzymes also were prepared by adsorption method to enhance thermostability of the crude proteinase. The yield of the crude proteinase was approximately 2.7% on dry basis. The proteolytic activity for casein was 0.54 U/mg protein, for BTEE 1.10 U/mg protein, and for BAEE 2.69 U/mg protein. It was almost similar to that of the commercial trypsin purified. Optimum hydrolysis activity of the crude proteinase was about 80%, as the degree of hydrolysis for casein, at pH 10.0 and 45$^{\circ}C$ for 12 hrs. Also, when the crude proteinase was immobilized on DEAE-Cellulose and chitin, the residual activities remained after 7 days of pre-incubation time were maintained about 90% or more and their thermostabilities were enhanced by about 50%, compared with the native enzyme.
