Novel trypsin–FITC@MOF bioreactor efficiently catalyzes protein digestion

Abstract

A simple nanoporous metal organic framework (MOF) bioreactor preparation via a low energy 30 minute vortex as driving force to immobilize trypsin enzyme is presented. No chemical modifications were employed thus organic wastes were eliminated. The digestion efficiency of this trypsin bioreactor is exceptionally high, even when reused. This "green" synthesis procedure produced a "green" bioreactor.
