| abstract |
The present invention relates to means and methods for protecting proteins and protein-type compounds in industrial and other applications. In particular, the invention provides a composition comprising at least one protein or protein-type compound immobilized at the surface of a solid carrier embedded in a protective material. Further, the present invention relates to methods for producing such a composition and to the use thereof in, for example, therapeutic applications. In particular, the system may be used to immobilize and protect enzymes on the surface of a carrier to generate a biocatalytical composition with increased resistance to various types of stresses. |
