Lipase immobilization using adsorption on magnetic nanoparticles, cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEA), and a combination of both techniques was investigated. Experimental designs were used for the optimization of the immobilization observing that the pH and ionic strength play a principal role during the lipase immobilization and its activity. For adsorption on magnetic nanoparticles and CLEA synthesis the optimal condition was pH and 100 mM. Besides, during the CLEA synthesis, glutaraldehyde concentration showed to be a significant effect on the enzyme activity. A comparison between a magnetic CLEA prepared with (Lip@mCLEA) and without (mCLEA) biological functionalized magnetic nanoparticles was made observing that the use of functionalized support showed the best performance activity. All biocatalytic systems developed gives to the enzyme thermal stability between 45 and 70 °C, being Lip@mCLEA the more stable biocatalyst. Similar behavior was observed at different pH, where both Lip@mCLEA and mCLEA showed stability at a range of pH 5 to 8. The immobilized biocatalysts showed the same affinity of the subtract that the free enzyme suggested that the enzyme structure not modified the active site. The combination of both types of immobilization show evidenced the importance of the biological functionalization of the support when magnetic CLEA is produced.
