  • C
    Assertion is true but reason is false.
  • D
    Both assertion and reason are false.

    Assertion: Enzymes application in industry is enhanced by its immobilisation.

    Reason: Immobilisation provides protection to enzymes without affecting their activity.

Answer

  1. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

Solution:

An immobilised enzyme is physically entrapped or covalently bonded by chemical means to an inert and usually insoluble matrix, where it can act upon its natural substrate. The matrix is usually a high molecular weight polymer such as polyacrylamide, cellulose, starch, glass, beads, etc. Because of its binding with a matrix the immobilised enzyme has better stability in many cases. Efficiency of inunobilised enzyme is better. The enzyme can be recovered at the end of the reaction and can be used repeatedly.
