Abstract:Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were modified by surfactants of polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG 6000) and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). The epoxidized magnetic silica nanoparticles were obtained by sol-gel method and ethanol-acid method. Lysozymes was immobilized on the epoxidized magnetic silica nanoparticles. The results show that the enzyme recovery is 78.6 % with lysozyme loading of 114.9 mg?g-1 when the immobilizing time is 2 h with buffer of pH 8.0 and initial lysozyme concentration of 1.0 g?L-1. The immobilized lysozymes have improved storage stability.
