Popis: Aspergillus niger xylanase A (XylA) was immobilized onto Fe3O4-coated chitosan magnetic nanoparticles prepared by the layer-by-layer self-assembly approach. The Fe3O4-coated chitosan magnetic nanoparticles showed a high binding capacity of 162.2 mg ∙ g− 1-particles and a recovery activity of 56.5% for XylA. The immobilized XylA showed improved thermostability and storage stability compared with free XylA. The immobilized XylA retained 87.5% activity after seven successive reactions by magnetic separation. Xylotriose and xylohexaose were the main products released from birchwood xylan and wheat bran insoluble xylan by immobilized XylA, respectively.
