Invertase in immobilized cells of Papaver somniferum L

Pharmazie. 1997 Mar;52(3):242-4.

Abstract

Papaver somniferum L., (opium poppy) cells were after permeabilization in Tween 80 immobilized by glutaraldehyde without any carrier. Cells immobilized by cross-linking performed the hydrolysis of sucrose. The immobilized cells were characterized by high invertase activity and appropriate physico-mechanical properties.
