BCP was derived from plant biomass wastes such as dumped bamboos by oxygen-free pyrolysis at low temperatures and grinding with a jet mill. The activity of adsorbed α-chymotrypsin was strongly dependent upon the kind of BCP. The thermal denaturation curve of adsorbed α-chymotrypsin was shifted to high temperature, compared to that of free one. When α-chymotrypsin adsorbed onto BCP of bamboos was incubated at 45°C, the half-life of adsorbed α-chymotrypsin was 2.6 times greater than that of free one. After incubation at 45°C, the remaining activity of adsorbed α-chymotrypsin markedly depended on the kind of BCP.展开更多

The PBC was characterized by SEM, specific surface area, and pore size distribution. The adsorption isotherms were successfully correlated by the Freundlich equation. The amount of α-chymotrypsin adsorbed on PBC was dramatically dependent upon the solution pH and temperature. Maximum adsorptions of α-chymotrypsin on adzuki bean charcoal and bagasse charcoal were observed at weak acidic and near neutral pH, respectively. The amount of α-chymotrypsin adsorbed on PBC decreased with an increase in the concentration of salts. Plots of the amount of α-chymotrypsin adsorbed on PBC versus temperature exhibited an optimum temperature.展开更多
