Pretreatment of shrimp shells with an acidic deep eutectic solvent system for chitin extraction and its enhanced performance as a carrier for immobilized lipase
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL MACROMOLECULES(2024)
摘要
Existing methods for chitin extraction usually produce substantial waste, which poses ecological hazards. Natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) offers a promising one-step pretreatment alternative, replacing the resource-intensive demineralization (DM) and deproteinization (DP) process. Hence, in this study, the influence of various acidic NADES, on achieving a simplified one-step DM and DP in the chitin extraction process was investigated. The study yielded chitin with 87.73 % purity, and microstructural analysis showed that NADES pretreatment minimally affected chitin quality without deacetylation. In addition, chitin extracted using choline chloride-oxalic acid as a carrier displayed excellent performance in the immobilization of Geobacillus thermocatenulatus lipase 2 (GTL2) because of obvious Ca2+ activation effect. This process contributed to enhancement of immobilized enzyme activity. The immobilized GTL2 showed excellent hydrolytic capabilities, with its highest activity reaching 547.80 +/- 20.62 U/mg, significantly better than the five commercial lipases that exhibited <40 % of the enzyme activity. Furthermore, the hydrolytic capacity of immobilized GTL2 was notably high for 4-nitrophenyl butyrate, measuring 935.47 +/- 51.60 U/mg. This study provided a constructive approach for the one-step pretreatment of shrimp shells with organic acid-based NADES to isolate and purify chitin and its potential application as an immobilized carrier to enhance enzyme activity.
