Abstract

Urease from Jack bean was immobilized on nonporous glass beads by covalent bonding and its kinetics were studied in a packed-column differential reactor. To facilitate comparison, the urease was immobilized by both diazo and glutaraldehyde coupling. The kinetic properties of immobilized urease were similar to those of the soluble enzyme and different immobilization methods did not appreciably alter the kinetic properties. The affects of three different amino acid activators appear to follow predictions obtained from a relatively simple competitive model, except at very low substrate levels.
