Copper-based metal-organic frameworks (BDC-Cu MOFs) as supporters for α-amylase: Stability, reusability, and antioxidant potential.

ABSTRACT: Copper-based metal-organic frameworks (BDC-Cu MOFs) were synthesized via a casting approach using 1,4-benzene dicarboxylic (BDC) as organic ligand and their properties characterized. The obtained materials were then utilized to immobilize the α-amylase enzyme. The chemical composition and functional components of the synthesized support (BDC-Cu MOFs) were investigated with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the surface morphology was determined with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the elemental composition was established with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyses. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was employed to analyze the crystallinity of the synthesized DBC-Cu MOFs. The zeta potentials of DBC-Cu MOFs and DBC-Cu MOFs@α-amylase were determined. The immobilized α-amylase demo
