An electric driven protein immobilizing module and method aims at immobilizing proteins rapidly and steadily on the surface of a selected support. The invention employs the characteristics of proteins/enzymes forming a slightly negative charge in a buffer solution. An external electric field is set up to drive the proteins/enzymes to be adsorbed onto the support. The invention improves upon conventional absorption or bonding methods that fix the protein in a non-directional approach which results in masking the protein active site and subsequently loss the protein activity. Thus activity of the protein/enzyme improved, while the time-consuming problem and enzymatic activity loss problem of incubation and vacuum absorption method may be avoided.
An electric driven protein immobilizing method comprising steps of:
An electric driven protein immobilizing module for pouring buffer and adding protein/enzyme solution into a module and connect with electrode to form a circuit to form a passage, comprising:
