Abstrakt: Azurin, found in the periplasm of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, has garnered significant attention as a potential anticancer agent in recent years. High-level secretion of proteins into the culture medium, offers a significant advantage over periplasmic or cytoplasmic expression. In this study, for the first time, P. aeruginosa cells were immobilized with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to ensure effective, simple and quick separation of the cells and secretion of periplasmic azurin protein to the culture medium. For this purpose, polyethyleneimine-coated iron oxide (Fe 3 O 4 @PEI) MNPs were synthesized and MNPs containing Fe up to 600 ppm were found to be non-toxic to the bacteria. The highest extracellular azurin level was observed in LB medium compared to peptone water. The cells immobilized with 400 ppm Fe-containing MNPs secreted the highest protein. Lastly, the immobilized cells were found suitable for azurin secretion until the sixth use. Thus, the magnetic nanoparticle immobilization method facilitated the release of azurin as well as the simple and rapid separation of cells. This approach, by facilitating protein purification and enabling the reuse of immobilized cells, offers a cost-effective means of protein production, reducing waste cell formation, and thus presents an advantageous method.
