Abstract

1. Invertase immobilized on hornblende was more active, and more stable at 45°C, than that on Enzacryl-TIO.

2. Highest activities were obtained with a crude particulate enzyme preparation, rather than with purified preparations.

3. At 60°C hornblende-bound enzyme had comparable stability to that of soluble enzyme, but the presence of substrate increased the stability of the bound enzyme.

4. Enzacryl-TIO-invertase had greater physical stability than hornblende-invertase.
