Abstract

Novel enzyme composites are synthesized first by in situ polymerization around enzymes and a subsequent sol–gel process. Both the polymer shell and the silica shell with desired functional moieties provide not only great enzyme protection but also a favorable microenvironment, resulting in significantly enhanced activity and stability.
