Characterization of the inhibition of enveloped virus infectivity by the cationic acrylate polymer eudragit E100.

abstract：:Enzyme immobilization is of high interest for industrial applications. However, immobilization may compromise enzyme activity or stability due to the harsh conditions which have to be applied. The authors therefore present a new and improved crosslinked layer-by-layer (cLbL) approach. Two different model enzymes (acid...
