Abstract: The present application discloses immobilized enzymes and immobilized enzyme materials comprising a crosslinked enzyme having a support material which includes a biomass material different than the biomass used to initially derive the enzyme. Optionally, the immobilized enzyme further includes a polymeric material and/or the biomass which was used to initially derive the enzyme. The resulting immobilized enzyme materials may be biodegradable. The present application also discloses methods of making and using the disclosed immobilized enzyme materials.

Abstract: Reactive and sorbent materials including a non-encapsulated crosslinked biological material immobilized on a support matrix that includes a polyamine and at least one support material are described. The support material can be an inorganic or organic support material. The reactive and sorbent materials are formed by reacting the biological material with the polyamine, at least one support material, and a crosslinking agent. The materials exhibit enhanced properties generally, are capable of maintaining their reactive and sorbent properties in contact with digestive fluids, and exhibiting their reactive and sorbent properties as they pass throughout an organism's entire digestive system. Reactive and sorbent materials in contact with digestive juices at pH's ranging from about 3 to about 7 have maintained their reactive and sorbent properties for at least 4 hours.
