eng Nanofibers with immobilized enzymes - diagnostic material for biotechnology and medicine Polysaccharide film entrapped proteases already produced and tested in mice could be promising for wound therapy. Our lab study covalent immobilizations of different proteases to solid carriers, and the aim of this work was to immobilize trypsin and chymotrypsin on cellulose nanofibers with sufficient enzyme activity, to investigate the effect of immobilization method, temperature, and pH on the preparation, its stability as possible drug delivery system in cutaneous dressings for wound healing. Cellulose as nontoxic, hydrophilic, biocompatible and biodegradable material and possibly nanofibered structure makes it very promising of using as immobilization carrier for drug delivery system. Nanofibers are produced by technology NanospiderTM. Electrospinning is a process capable of producing polymer fibers in nanometer diameter range. After cellulose nanofiber activation (oxidation) and modification by trypsin it showed high proteolytic activity on low-molecular substrate BApNA. nanofibers; modification; enzymes
