Herein, the synthesis of enzyme-polymer conjugates is reported. Four different activated polymers (mPEG-aldehyde, mPEG-NHS, maltodextrin-aldehyde, carboxymethyl cellulose aldehyde) are conjugated to the surface of protease, α-amylase, and lipase using two different strategies (reductive amination and alkylation with NHS-activated acid).

An enzyme capable of hydrolysing pectenotoxins (PTXs) and okadaic acid (OA) esters within the hepatopancreas of the Greenshell™ mussel Perna canaliculus was isolated and characterized. The enzyme was purified by sequential polyethylene glycol fractionation, anion exchange, hydrophobic interaction, gel filtration

Hepatic carboxylesterases (Ces) catalyze the metabolism of drugs, environmental toxicants, and endogenous lipids and are known to be regulated by multiple nuclear receptors. Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a synthetic fluorochemical that has been associated with dyslipidemia in exposed populations. In
