Abstract
Metal complexes inspired by carbonic anhydrase (CA), which is a metalloenzyme containing Zn(II), have been investigated as alternatives for CO2 fixation systems operating under ambient temperature and pressure conditions. In this study, we designed a trinuclear Zn(II) cryptate complex (Zn3 L) and demonstrated rapid CO2 fixation with carbonation of CO2 using Zn3 L. The CO2 fixation performance of Zn3 L surpassed that of a standard CO2 absorbent, KOH(aq) solution, under conditions of the same solute concentration. In addition, the reaction achieved operation without support addition of base, which has been often required in systems of CA-inspired complexes. Fixed CO2 was released by protonating polyazacryptate ligand (L) and breaking the complex structure, and deprotonation of L induced the reconstruction of Zn3 L, allowing it to refix CO2 . This reaction mechanism was proposed based on the analysis of operando extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. Zn3 L also demonstrated the ability to capture dilute CO2 from air, and the volume of CO2 captured by Zn3 L was approximately 2.6 times that captured by the KOH(aq) solution. Our Zn3 L exhibited three valuable properties: rapid CO2 fixation without a base, reversibility, and ability to capture dilute CO2 ; thus Zn3 L is a promising candidate as CO2 fixatives.

Abstract
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is covalently bound in aqueous solution to polycationic α-poly(D-lysine) chains of ≈1000 repeating units length, PDL, via a bis-aryl hydrazone bond (BAH). Under the experimental conditions used, about 15 HRP molecules are bound along the PDL chain. The purified PDL-BAH-HRP conjugate is very stable when stored at micromolar HRP concentration in a pH 7.2 phosphate buffer solution at 4 °C. When a defined volume of such a conjugate solution of desired HRP concentration (i.e., HRP activity) is added to a macro- and mesoporous silica monolith with pore sizes of 20-30 µm as well as below 30 nm, quantitative and stable noncovalent conjugate immobilization is achieved. The HRP-containing monolith can be used as flow-through enzyme reactor for bioanalytical applications at neutral or slightly alkaline pH, as demonstrated for the determination of hydrogen peroxide in diluted honey. The conjugate can be detached from the monolith by simple enzyme reactor washing with an aqueous solution of pH 5.0, enabling reloading with fresh conjugate solution at pH 7.2. Compared to previously investigated polycationic dendronized polymer-enzyme conjugates with approximately the same average polymer chain length, the PDL-BAH-HRP conjugate appears to be equally suitable for HRP immobilization on silica surfaces.

Abstract
Liposomes (lipid vesicles) with sizes of about 100-200 nm carrying surface-bound (immobilized) water-soluble enzymes are functionalized molecular compartment systems for possible applications, for example, as therapeutic materials or as catalytic reaction units for running reactions in aqueous media in vitro. One way of covalently attaching enzyme molecules under mild conditions in a controlled way to the surface of preformed liposomes is to apply the spectrophotometrically traceable bis-aryl hydrazone (BAH) bond between the liposome and the enzyme molecules of interest. Using bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA), an aqueous dispersion of liposome-BAH-BCA - conjugates of defined composition was prepared. The liposomes used consisted of 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC), N-(methylpolyoxyethylene oxycarbonyl)-1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DSPE-PEG), and N-(aminopropylpolyoxyethylene oxycarbonyl)-1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DSPE-PEG-NH2). The amino group of some of the DSPE-PEG-NH2 molecules present in the liposomes were converted into an aromatic aldehyde, which (after purification) reacted with (purified) BCA molecules that had on their surface on average one acetone protected aromatic hydrazine. After purification of the liposome-BAH-BCA conjugate dispersion obtained, it was characterized in terms of (i) BCA activity, (ii) overall BCA structure, and (iii) storage stability. For an average liposome of 138 nm diameter, about 1200 BCA molecules were attached to the outer liposome surface. Liposomally bound BCA was found to exhibit (i) similar catalytic activity at 25 °C and (ii) similar storage stability when stored in a dispersed state in aqueous solution at 4 °C as free BCA. Measurements at 5 °C clearly showed that liposome-BAH-BCA is able to catalyze the hydration of carbon dioxide to hydrogen carbonate.

Abstract
Fibrous membranes offer broad opportunities to deploy immobilized enzymes in new reactor and application designs, including multiphase continuous flow-through reactions. Enzyme immobilization is a technology strategy that simplifies the separation of otherwise soluble catalytic proteins from liquid reaction media and imparts stabilization and performance enhancement. Flexible immobilization matrices made from fibers have versatile physical attributes, such as high surface area, light weight, and controllable porosity, which give them membrane-like characteristics, while simultaneously providing good mechanical properties for creating functional filters, sensors, scaffolds, and other interface-active biocatalytic materials. This review examines immobilization strategies for enzymes on fibrous membrane-like polymeric supports involving all three fundamental mechanisms of post-immobilization, incorporation, and coating. Post-immobilization offers an infinite selection of matrix materials, but may encounter loading and durability issues, while incorporation offers longevity but has more limited material options and may present mass transfer obstacles. Coating techniques on fibrous materials at different geometric scales are a growing trend in making membranes that integrate biocatalytic functionality with versatile physical supports. Biocatalytic performance parameters and characterization techniques for immobilized enzymes are described, including several emerging techniques of special relevance for fibrous immobilized enzymes. Diverse application examples from the literature, focusing on fibrous matrices, are summarized, and biocatalyst longevity is emphasized as a critical performance parameter that needs increased attention to advance concepts from lab scale to broader utilization. This consolidation of fabrication, performance measurement, and characterization techniques, with guiding examples highlighted, is intended to inspire future innovations in enzyme immobilization with fibrous membranes and expand their uses in novel reactors and processes.

Abstract
The insertion of bis(diarylcarbene)s onto a glass fiber (GF) membrane surface provided an active coating for the direct capture of protein - exemplified by the enzyme, cellulase - through a mild diazonium coupling process which does not require additional coupling agents. Successful cellulase attachment on the surface was demonstrated by the disappearance of diazonium and formation of azo functions in the N 1s high resolution spectra, the appearance of carboxyl group in C 1s spectra, both observed by XPS; the -CO vibrational bond observed by ATR-IR; as well as the observation of fluorescence. Further, five support materials (polystyrene XAD4 bead, polyacrylate MAC3 bead, glass wool, glass fiber membrane, polytetrafluoroethylene membrane) with different morphology and surface chemistry, were examined in detail as supports for cellulase immobilization using this common surface modification protocol. Of interest is that such covalently bound cellulase on modified GF membrane gave both the highest enzyme loading (∼23 mg cellulase per g support), and retained more than 90% of activity after 6 cycles of re-use, compared with substantial loss of enzyme activity for physiosorbed cellulase after 3 cycles. Optimization of the degree of surface grafting and the effectiveness of a spacer between surface and enzyme for enzyme loading and activity were conducted. This work shows that carbene surface modification is a viable strategy for introducing enzymes onto a surface under very mild conditions and retaining a meaningful level of activity, and particularly, using GF membrane as a novel support provides a potential platform for enzyme and protein immobilization.

Abstract
In the recent scenario, anthropogenic interventions have alarmingly disrupted climatic conditions. The persistent change in the climate necessitates carbon neutrality. Efficient ways of carbon capture and sequestration could be employed for sustainable product generation. Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is an enzyme that reversibly catalyzes the conversion of carbon dioxide to bicarbonate ions, further utilized by cells for metabolic processes. Hence, utilizing CA from microbial sources for carbon sequestration and the corresponding delivery of bio-renewables could be the eco-friendly approach. Consequently, the microbial CA and amine-based carbon capture chemicals are synergistically applied to enhance carbon capture efficiency and eventual utilization. This review comprehends recent developments coupled with engineering techniques, especially in microbial CA, to create integrated systems for CO2 sequestration. It envisages developing sustainable approaches towards mitigating environmental CO2 from industries and fossil fuels to generate bio-renewables and other value-added chemicals.

Abstract
Although many different methods are known for the immobilization of enzymes on solid supports for use in flow-through applications as enzyme reactors, the reproducible immobilization of predetermined amounts of catalytically active enzyme molecules remains challenging. This challenge was tackled using a macro- and mesoporous silica monolith as a support and dendronized polymer-enzyme conjugates. The conjugates were first prepared in an aqueous solution by covalently linking enzyme molecules and either horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) along the chains of a water-soluble second-generation dendronized polymer using an established procedure. The obtained conjugates are stable biohybrid structures in which the linking unit between the dendronized polymer and each enzyme molecule is a bisaryl hydrazone (BAH) bond. Quantitative and reproducible enzyme immobilization inside the monolith is possible by simply adding a defined volume of a conjugate solution of a defined enzyme concentration to a dry monolith piece of the desired size. In that way, (i) the entire volume of the conjugate solution is taken up by the monolith piece due to capillary forces and (ii) all conjugates of the added conjugate solution remain stably adsorbed (immobilized) noncovalently without detectable leakage from the monolith piece. The observed flow-through activity of the resulting enzyme reactors was directly proportional to the amount of conjugate used for the reactor preparation. With conjugate solutions consisting of defined amounts of both types of conjugates, the controlled coimmobilization of the two enzymes, namely, BCA and HRP, was shown to be possible in a simple way. Different stability tests of the enzyme reactors were carried out. Finally, the enzyme reactors were applied to the catalysis of a two-enzyme cascade reaction in two types of enzymatic flow-through reactor systems with either coimmobilized or sequentially immobilized BCA and HRP. Depending on the composition of the substrate solution that was pumped through the two types of enzyme reactor systems, the coimmobilized enzymes performed significantly better than the sequentially immobilized ones. This difference, however, is not due to a molecular proximity effect with regard to the enzymes but rather originates from the kinetic features of the cascade reaction used. Overall, the method developed for the controllable and reproducible immobilization of enzymes in the macro- and mesoporous silica monolith offers many possibilities for systematic investigations of immobilized enzymes in enzymatic flow-through reactors, potentially for any type of enzyme.

Abstract
A versatile approach to entrap relatively small enzymes in hydrogels allows their diverse biotechnological applications. In the present work, bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) was efficiently entrapped in calcium alginate beads with the help of liposomes. A mixture of sodium alginate (3 wt %) and carbonic anhydrase-liposome conjugates (BCALs) was dripped into a Tris-HCl buffer solution (pH = 7.5) containing 0.4 M CaCl2 to induce the gelation and curing of the dispersed alginate-rich droplets. The entrapment efficiency of BCALs, which was defined as the amount of catalysts entrapped in alginate beads relative to that initially charged, was 98.7 ± 0.2% as determined through quantifying BCALs in the filtrate being separated from the beads. When free BCA was employed, on the other hand, a significantly lower entrapment efficiency of 27.2 ± 4.1% was obtained because free BCA could pass through alginate matrices. Because the volume of a cured alginate bead (10 μL) entrapped with BCALs was about 2.5 times smaller than that of an original droplet, BCALs were densely present in the beads to give the concentrations of lipids and BCA of 4.6-8.3 mM and 1.1-1.8 mg/mL, respectively. Alginate beads entrapped with BCALs were used to catalyze the hydrolysis of 1.0 mM p-nitrophenyl acetate (p-NA) at pH = 7.5 using the wells of a microplate or 10 mL glass beakers as batch reactors. Furthermore, the beads were confined in a column for continuous-flow hydrolysis of 1.0 mM p-NA for 1 h at a mean residence time of 8.5 or 4.3 min. The results obtained demonstrate that the conjugation of BCA to liposomes gave an opportunity to achieve efficient and stable entrapment of BCA in alginate hydrogels for applying to catalytic reactions in bioreactors.

Abstract
Enzyme immobilization using inorganic membranes has enticed increased attention as they not only improve enzyme stability, but also furnish user-friendly biodevices that can be tailored to different applications. Herein, we explored the suitability of the glass fiber membrane for enzyme immobilization and its application for halocarbon detection. For this, halohydrin dehalogenase (HheC) and bovine serum albumin were crosslinked and immobilized on a glass fiber membrane without membrane functionalization. Immobilized HheC exhibited higher storage stability than its free counterpart over 60 days at 4 °C (67% immobilized vs. 8.1% free) and 30 °C (77% immobilized vs. 57% free). Similarly, the thermal endurance of the immobilized HheC was significantly improved. The practical utility of the membrane-immobilized enzyme was demonstrated by colorimetric detection of 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) and 2,3-dibromo-1-propanol (2,3-DBP) as model analytes. Under optimized conditions, the detection limits of 0.06 mM and 0.09 mM were achieved for 1,3-DCP and 2,3-DBP, respectively. The satisfactory recoveries were observed with spiked river and lake water samples, which demonstrate the application potential of immobilized HheC for screening contaminants in water samples. Our results revealed that the proposed frugal and facile approach could be useful for enzyme stabilization, and mitigation of halocarbon pollution.

Abstract
Enzyme-catalysed cascade reactions in flow-through systems with immobilised enzymes currently are of great interest for exploring their potential for biosynthetic and bioanalytical applications. Basic studies in this field often aim at understanding the stability of the immobilised enzymes and their catalytic performance, for example, in terms of yield of a desired reaction product, analyte detection limit, enzyme stability or reaction reproducibility. In the work presented, a cascade reaction involving the two enzymes bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) – with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as HRP “activator” – was first investigated in great detail in bulk solution at pH = 7.2. The reaction studied is the hydrolysis and oxidation of 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH2-DA) to 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein (DCF), which was found to proceed along two reaction pathways. This two-enzyme cascade reaction was then applied for analysing the performance of BCA and HRP immobilised in glass fiber filters which were placed inside a filter holder device through which a DCFH2-DA/H2O2 substrate solution was pumped. Comparison was made between (i) co-immobilised and (ii) sequentially immobilised enzymes (BCA first, HRP second). Significant differences for the two arrangements in terms of measured product yield (DCF) could be explained based on quantitative UV/vis absorption measurements carried out in bulk solution. We found that the lower DCF yield observed for sequentially immobilised enzymes originates from a change in one of the two possible reaction pathways due to enzyme separation, which was not the case for enzymes that were co-immobilised (or simultaneously present in the bulk solution experiments). The higher DCF yield observed for co-immobilised enzymes did not originate from a molecular proximity effect (no increased oxidation compared to sequential immobilisation). A cascade reaction catalysed by bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) proceeds over two possible pathways, which explains differences in product formation for differently immobilised enzymes in flow-through reactions.![]()

Abstract
Horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme C (HRP) and Engyodontium album proteinase K (proK) were immobilized inside macro- and mesoporous silica monoliths. Stable immobilization was achieved through simple noncovalent adsorption of conjugates, which were prepared from a polycationic, water-soluble second generation dendronized polymer (denpol) and the enzymes. Conjugates prepared from three denpols with the same type of repeating unit (r.u.), but different average lengths were compared. It was shown that there is no obvious advantage of using denpols with very long chains. Excellent results were achieved with denpols having on average 750 or 1000 r.u. The enzyme-loaded monoliths were tested as flow reactors. Comparison was made with microscopy glass coverslips onto which the conjugates were immobilized and with glass micropipettes containing adsorbed conjugates. High enzyme loading was achieved using the monoliths. Monoliths containing immobilized denpol-HRP conjugates exhibited good operational stability at 25 °C (for at least several hours), and good storage stability at 4 °C (at least for weeks) was demonstrated. Such HRP-containing monoliths were applied as continuous flow reactors for the quantitative determination of hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution between 1 μM (34 ng/mL) and 50 μM (1.7 μg/mL). Although many methods for immobilizing enzymes on silica surfaces exist, there are only a few approaches with porous silica materials for the development of flow reactors. The work presented is a promising contribution to this field of research toward bioanalytical and biosynthetic applications.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is an essential metalloenzyme in living systems for accelerating the hydration and dehydration of carbon dioxide. CA-catalyzed reactions can be applied in vitro for capturing industrially emitted gaseous carbon dioxide in aqueous solutions. To facilitate this type of practical application, the immobilization of CA on or inside solid or soft support materials is of great importance because the immobilization of enzymes in general offers the opportunity for enzyme recycling or long-term use in bioreactors. Moreover, the thermal/storage stability and reactivity of immobilized CA can be modulated through the physicochemical nature and structural characteristics of the support material used. This review focuses on (i) immobilization methods which have been applied so far, (ii) some of the characteristic features of immobilized forms of CA, and (iii) biotechnological applications of immobilized CA. The applications described not only include the CA-assisted capturing and sequestration of carbon dioxide, but also the CA-supported bioelectrochemical conversion of CO2 into organic molecules, and the detection of clinically important CA inhibitors. Furthermore, immobilized CA can be used in biomimetic materials synthesis involving cascade reactions, e.g. for bone regeneration based on calcium carbonate formation from urea with two consecutive reactions catalyzed by urease and CA.
