Converting renewable cellulose into glucose via cellulase catalysis for further production of biofuel has been recognized as one of the most promising ways for solving energy crisis.However,the hydrolysis performance of immobilized cellulase was not satisfactory for practical application due to the reduced catalytic efficiency and lack ofβ-glucosidase (BG) component in cellulase.Here,a facile method was developed to sequentially co-immobilize BG and cellulase by polymeric microparticles with hierarchical structure.In this strategy,BG was firstly entrapped into the cross-linked poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) microparticles via inverse emulsion polymerization initiated by isopropyl thioxanthone (ITX) under the irradiation of visible light,leaving the formed ITX semi-pinacol (ITXSP) dormant groups on surface of BG-loaded microparticles,which could be further activated by visible light irradiation and initiated a graft polymerization to introduce poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) brush on the PEG core.After that,cellulase was covalently bonded on the PAA chains via carbodiimide reaction.The synergic effect of BG and cellulase was verified in the dual enzyme immobilization system,which led to a better stability at a wide range of temperature and pH than free enzymes.The dual enzymes system exhibited excellent reusability,which could retain 75% and 57% of the initial activity after 10 cycles of hydrolysis of carboxyl methyl cellulose and 5 cycles of hydrolysis of filter paper,respectively,indicative of the potential in biofuel areas in a cost-effective manner.
