Abstract
A method for immobilizing enzymes or microbial cells which comprises the steps of uniformly mixing an aqueous dispersion of enzymes or microbial cells with a photo-curable resin having a number average molecular weight of 800 to 100,000, two or more photopolymerizable ethylenically unsaturated groups per molecule and hydrophilic groups, and irradiating actinic rays to the above mixture of photo-curable resin and enzymes or microbial cells. The immobilized product is advantageously used in various enzymatic reactions with stable enzyme activity.
