Cell immobilization using PVA crosslinked with boric acid
Biotechnol Bioeng.
.
Abstract
A new cell immobilization technique is described in which polyvinyl alcohol is crosslinked with boric acid, with the addition of a small amount of calcium alginate. The presence of the calcium alginate improves the surface properties of the beads, preventing agglomeration. A pure culture of phenol-degrading Pseudomonas was immobilized in the PVA-alginate beads. Phenol was successfully degraded in a fluidized bed of the beads, indicating that cell viability was maintained following the immobilization procedure. The PVA-alginate beads proved to be very strong and durable, with no noticeable degradation of the beads after 2 weeks of continuous operation of the fluidized bed.
