Original Source: Hydrolysis of microalgae cell walls for production of reducing sugar and lipid extraction.
In this study, cell walls of microalgae were hydrolyzed for the production of reducing sugar by cellulase, which was immobilized onto an electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibrous membrane. Since the nitrile groups of the PAN membrane were activated by the amidination reaction and covalent binding to the amino groups of the cellulase, electrospun PAN nanofibrous membranes with a high specific surface area were applied as supports for the immobilization. Under the optimal hydrolysis conditions, the immo...
