    Notes: Following ozone oxidation of polyester microfibers of 3.5 μm average diameter and 0.83 m2/g specific area, the fiber surface was subjected to graft polymerization of acrylic acid and subsequently immobilized with serologically active proteins including Staphylococcus aureus protein A, a specific antigen, and a specific antibody. The immobilization reaction was mediated by a watersoluble carbodiimide, which allowed formation of a co-valent linkage between the ligand proteins and the grafted poly(acrylic acid)chains. The yields of the immobilized ligand proteins were of the order of 1 mg/g fiber. Their binding affinity and capacity to respective specific proteins were studied in vitro from a buffered solution and serum. It was found that the specific proteins were selectively adsorbed with dissociation constants as low as 1× 10-6 M, suggesting the adsorption to take place through highly specific protein-protein interaction. An addition of serum albumin did not significantly affect the specific binding, regardless of the ligand proteins. The binding capacity ranged from 1 × 10-13 to 1× 10-11 mol/cm2 primarily depending on the surface density of the immobilized ligands and the number of their binding sites per molecule. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons Inc.

    Notes: Immobilization of DNA to the surface of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) microfibers with a high specific surface area of 0.83 m2/g was carried out to give the fiber surface an affinity for anti-DNA antibody. Following ozone oxidation, the microfibers were subjected to graft polymerization of monomers including acrylic acid, methacryloyloxyethyl phosphate, N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, N-vinylformamide, and glycidyl methacrylate. Calf thymus DNA was immobilized to the grafted fiber surface through either covalent binding or polyion complexation with the grafted polymer chains. The highest surface density of DNA immobilized (0.6 μg/cm2) was obtained when DNA was immobilized through formation of phosphodiester linkage between the hydroxyl group of DNA and the phosphate group in grafted poly(methacryloyloxyethyl phosphate) using 1,1-carbonyldiimidazole, or through polyion complexation between the anionic DNA and the cationic grafted poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) chains. Batch adsorption of anti-DNA antibody to the grafted PET fibers with and without DNA immobilized on their surface was conducted with serum obtained from systemic lupus erythematosus model mice. The DNA-immobilized PET fibers exhibited a higher adsorption capacity and specificity than the others. In addition, the DNA-immobilized fibers effectively adsorbed human anti-DNA antibody.

    Notes: Water-insoluble proteases were prepared by immobilizing papain and chymotrypsin onto the surface of polyacrolein microspheres with and without oligoglycines as spacer. The activity of immobilized proteases was found to be still high toward small ester substrates, but very low toward casein, a high-molecular-weight substrate. The relative activity of the immobilized proteases without spacer decreased gradually with the decreasing surface concentration of the immobilized proteases on the microspheres. On the contrary, the immobilized proteases with oligoglycine spacers gave an almost constant activity for the substrate hydrolysis within the surface concentration region studied and gave a much higher relative activity than those without any spacer. With the longer spacer, the immobilized enzymes showed a higher activity toward casein hydrolysis, whereas there was an optimum length for the spacer when hydrolysis was carried out toward the low-molecular-weight substrate. The thermal stability of the immobilized proteases was higher than that of the respective native proteases. The initial enzymatic activity of the immobilized proteases maintained almost unchanged without any elimination and inactivation of proteases, when the batch enzyme reaction was performed repeatedly, indicating the excellent durability.

    Notes: A lipoprotein lipase (LPL) was made water insoluble by immobilizing onto the surface of polyacrolein (PAA) microspheres with and without oligoglycines as spacer. The activity of the immobilized LPL was found to remain high toward a small ester substrate, p-nitrophenyl laurate (pNPL). The relative activity of the immobilized LPL without spacer decreased gradually with the decreasing surface concentration of the immobilized LPL on the PAA microsphere. On the contrary, the immobilized LPL with oligoglycine spacers gave an almost constant activity for the substrate hydrolysis within the surface concentration region studied and gave a much higher relative activity than that without any spacer. The Michaelis constant Km and the maximum reaction velocity Vm were estimated for the free and the immobilized LPL. The apparent Km was larger for the immobilized LPL than for the free one, while Vm was smaller for the immobilized LPL. The pH, thermal, and storage stabilities of the immobilized LPL were higher than those of the free one. The initial enzymatic activity of the immobilized LPL maintained almost unchanged without any leakage and inactivation of LPL when the batch enzyme reaction was performed repeatedly, indicating the excellent durability of the immobilized LPL.
