Abstract:
Mesoporous materials are of great interest to the materials community because of their potential applications for catalysis,separation of large molecules,medical implants,semiconductors,magnetoelectric devices.The thesis entitled 'Ordered Mesoporous Silica as supports for immobilization of Biocatalyst' presents how the pore size can be tuned without the loss in ordered structure for the entrapment of an industially important biocatalyst-amylase.Immobilization of enzymes on ordered mesoporous material has triggered new ooportunities for stabilizing enzymes with improved intrinsic and operational stabilities.
