ABSTRACT
HYPOTHESIS:
Porous silica has been extensively used as suitable carrier for the immobilization of various enzymes. Randomly Methylated ß-Cyclodextrin (RaMeßCD) has surface active properties and very high solubility in water and could therefore be used as template in the fabrication of silica particles with tunable pore size. EXPERIMENTS Silica particles were prepared by sol-gel process in alkaline medium with and without use of RaMeßCD. Lipase Bfrom Candida antarctica (CALB) was either incorporated within the pores of RaMeßCD-derived support or covalently attached on the surface of CD-free silica particles and its catalytic performance was assayed in the oxidation of 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA). Enzymatic reactors were characterized by N2-adsorption analysis, small angle XRD, TG/DSC experiments, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, HR-TEM and LSCM, while reaction products were determined based on 1H NMR spectroscopy combined with HPLC.FINDINGS:
Results showed that the use of RaMeßCD as structure directing agent led to mesoporous silica composed of uniform 8 nm-sized particles with 11 nm-sized mesopores compatible with the dimensions of CALB (3.0 nm × 4.0 nm × 5.0 nm). Incorporation of CALB within the pores of RaMeßCD-derived silica caused almost a two-fold increase in specific activity after 7 h at 40 °C when compared to lipase immobilized on the surface of CD-free silica particles (33.2 µmol g-1 min-1vs. 14.4 µmol g-1 min-1). Moreover, the RaMeßCD-derived biocatalyst demonstrated enhanced operational stability during the recycling experiments, retaining more than 90% of its initial activity after five 24 h-reaction cycles. These findings open up new avenues for future research on the use of cyclodextrins in the development of enzyme-based nanoreactors.Palabras clave
