摘　　要：Chitin nanofbers have recently received increased attention and are considered to be a promising material for a wide range of applications because of their excellent characteristics.In this study,2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl(TEMPO)-oxidized chitin nanofbers(CNFs)with various oxidation times were prepared and characterized.CNFs with diferent oxidation times were then utilized for enzyme immobilization,using chymotrypsin as a model enzyme.The efects of oxidation time on enzyme immobilization were explored.Results showed characteristics of chitin nanofbers can be controlled by adjusting oxidation time.CNFs treated with TEMPO for 360 min showed the lowest crystallinity(79.13±1.43%),the shortest length(241.70±74.61 nm),the largest width(12.67±3.43 nm),and the highest transmittance(73.01%at 800 nm).The activity of immobilized enzymes and enzyme loading showed good correlation to the carboxylate content of CNFs.The enzyme efciency based on CNFs and the content of carboxylate groups peaked at the oxidization time of 60 min.When the additional amount of chymotrypsins(CTs)was 500 or 2000 mg/g carrier,the highest loading amount of CTs was 307.17±4.08 or 726.82±12.05 mg/g carrier,respectively.
