Question

Immobilised enzymes are generally used for bioreactors in

• A. Batch process
• B. Digestive process
• C. Activation process
• D. Continuous process

Answer 1

The correct option is D Continuous process

Immobilization of biocatalysts helps in their economic reuse and in the development of continuous bioprocesses. Biocatalysts can be immobilized either using the isolated enzymes or the whole cells. Immobilization often stabilizes structure of the enzymes, thereby allowing their applications even under harsh environmental conditions of pH, temperature and organic solvents, and thus enable their uses at high temperatures in nonaqueous enzymology, and in the fabrication of biosensor probes.

So, the correct answer is 'Continuous process'
