Responsible for hydrolysis of tannins present in several beverages, tannase is an industrial enzyme of the great potential for applications in the food industry. Tannase was covalently immobilized onto magnetic nanoparticles composed of diatomaceous earth coated with polyaniline (mDE-PANI-TANNASE). This enzyme derivative showed 41% of residual...
