Abstract

A novel and facile method for the preparation of an enzyme-immobilized microreactor has been developed in which enzymes are immobilized as an enzyme-polymer membrane formed on the inner wall of the microchannel by a cross-linking polymerization method; the resulting microreactor shows excellent reaction performance and stability against denaturating agents.
