Lentikats Biotechnology
Unique shape of the matrix and original immobilisation procedure enables to encapsulate free enzymes or microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, fungi) inside a hydrogel porous carrier from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The advantages of PVA matrix are: • excellent physical and mechanical characteristics that result in a
mechanical stability long-term
• hardly biodegradable • no toxic effects Lentikats Biocatalysts enable easy separation of enzymes or microorganisms from the bulk media and therefore can be used repeatedly.
With biotechnologies to a better future…
Microencapsulation
vs.
Lentikats Biotechnology
traditional proven technology spherical shape – limited diffusion to the “core” „micro“ size new method based on well-proven principle lentil-like shape – no diffusion limitations „mili“ size – easier separation
How does the Lentikats Biocatalyst work?
A maximum surface in combination with the minimum volume of Lentikats Biocatalyst results in a substantial reduction of diffusion limitations associated with the transfer of substrate into the matrix and the product out of the matrix.
Why polyvinylalcohol?
• • • • • • • It is an inexpensive material Encapsulation takes place under optimal, cell-sparing conditions It allows a production of hydrogel with excellent mechanical properties It does not have any side effects on fermentation It offers high capacity for the cell loading The process is stable and easy to control It is a non-toxic material

Biocatalyst Types for Use in Lentikats Encapsulation:
•
Free Cells
• dead cells • • viable, non growing cells viable and growing cells •
Free or Immobilised Enzymes.
•
Lentikats Biotechnology allows to immobilise any type of enzyme
The size of Lentikats Biocatalyst pores varies depending on the size and diameter of the Biocatalyst due to:
• PVA additive type (size of macromolecule) • • additive concentration biomass concentration

Laboratory Units for Encapsulation
•
For low-capacity production of encapsulates (especially for research purposes), a laboratory device is available
What are the benefits?
Matrix containing high concentration of biomass Possibility of repeated usage Enhanced resistance of modified and immobilised biomass Easy separation of biomass from reaction media Higher yields (in comparison to conventional technologies using free biomass) Operational costs savings Higher reaction rates Higher process stability Reduced costs for downstream processes (separation) Lower production of waste and by-products Environmentally friendly disposal Reduction of reaction tanks’ volume Operational costs savings (electricity, heat)
