PROCESS FOR PREPARING A WATER-INsoluble ENZYME COMPLEX, AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING 6-AMINOPENICILLANIC ACID.

摘要

Novel re-usable water-insoluble penicillin acylase complexes are provided wherein a penicillin acylase is adsorbed on a water-insoluble polymer or co-polymer of methacrylic acid and cross-linked with a water-soluble aldehyde selected from the group consisting of glutaraldehyde, glyoxal and formaldehyde. The complexes are useful in the production of 6-APA from penicillins G and V.
