Abstract

Development of a novel immobilization strategy using synthetic 3D printable hydrogels for flow biocatalysis. Enzyme immobilization is the key to an intensified bioprocess that allows recycling of the heterogenized enzyme and/or continuous biocatalytic production. In this communication, we present a case study for enzyme immobilization in a novel, 3D printable synthetic hydrogel and its use in continuous oxidation reactions. Immobilization resulted in an average immobilization yield of 6.1% and continuous synthesis was run for 24 hours with a space–time yield of 3.1 × 10 −2 g L −1 h −1 .
