Abstract

The inhibitory activity of ovomucoid from duck egg white, immobilized on chitosan with the use of glutaraldehyde or carbodiimide as cross-linking agents, was studied. Glutaraldehyde proved to be a more preferable cross-linking agent than carbodiimide. When chitosan is used as a protein carrier, the possibility of shifting the pH optimum of these compounds should be taken into account.
