摘要:Immobilization is the method of entrapping/attaching the microbial or plant cells in a suitable matrix.Different methods such as encapsulation, gel entrapment, covalent bonding, cross linking and adsorption is carried outto prepare immobilized cells. When compared to enzyme immobilization, cell immobilization is regarded as aconvenient method because of its low cost and improved stability. The cost of isolation and purification is very high inenzyme immobilization. These immobilized cells are mainly used in the areas of biotechnology and industrialproduction. This paper reviews the various methods of immobilization and application of immobilized cells in wastetreatment and biodiesel production.
