Abstract

More immobile and more stable: The advantages of the immobilization of biocatalysts, for example, through the formation of aggregates or linking to iron oxide nanoparticles and organic supports (see scheme), include an enhanced stability, simple separation from the reaction mixture, and often an increased activity of the immobilizate.
