- Abstract
- Here, we propose a new strategy for the preparation of a GOx/TS-1 hybrid catalyst that allows to combine all the features of the zeolite with a high enzyme loading. The method is based on the aerosol-assisted [6] self-assembly of TS-1 crystals to form hollow mesoporous zeolite microspheres ("TS-1_Aer", Fig. 1a) with tailored texture and good epoxidation activity in water. The latter spheres were loaded with various amounts "X" of enzymes which were then cross-linked (Cross-Linked Enzyme Aggregates, CLEAs [7]) to secure their entrapment ("GOx_X@TS-1_Aer", Fig. 1b). Thus, the hollow spheres were used both as catalysts and as vessels for the enzyme.
