In entrapment an active species, which is often a catalyst, is trapped within a material by a
solid or gel forming event; thus, it becomes dispersed within the solid or semi-solid matrix …

Alginate is an excellent biodegradable and renewable material that is already used for a
broad range of industrial applications, including advanced fields, such as biomedicine and …

Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) hydrogels have gained great attention in the last
decades, mainly due to their biomedical applications. This review aims to give an overview …

Although many methods for enzyme immobilization have been described in patents and
publications, relatively few processes employing immobilized enzymes have been …

Sodium alginate (SA) can form hydrogels with multivalent cations and is used in the tissue

In this study, novel kappa-carrageenan/poly (vinyl alcohol) nanocomposite hydrogels were
developed by incorporating sodium montmorillonite nanoclay. The mixture of polymers and …

Preparation and characterization of some interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN)
composite hydrogels based on polyacrylamide (PAAm) and chitosan (CS) are presented in …

Laccase is one of the widely used enzymes for biotechnological processes. Immobilization
