Abstract:

An immobilized β-glucuronidase enzyme reactor (IMER) based on organic-silica gel hybridized capillary column was prepared by the sol-gel method with acrylamide (AAM) as the organic functional monomer. The effects of the amounts of tetramethyl orthosilicate (TMOS), 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-MAPS), acrylamide (AAM), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and the water bath temperature on the quality of the microscopic structure were studied. After optimization,the monolithic column with good permeability and high mechanical strength was obtained. Then β-glucuronidase was covalently immobilized, and the hydrolysis efficiency of the β-glucuronidase IMER was investigated. As the substrate, O-glucuronides of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (NNAL-O-Gluc) were hydrolyzed at room temperature, indicating the high hydrolysis efficiency of the β-glucuronidase IMER, which demonstrated its high potential for the high throughput analysis of tobacco metabolites in the future.

Key words: β-glucuronidase, O-glucuronides of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (NNAL-O-Gluc), immobilized enzyme reactor (IMER), organic silica hybrid monolithic column
