Principles of Lentikats BiotechnologyPrinciples of Lentikats Biotechnology
What is a Lentikats Biocatalyst?Unique shape of the matrix and the original principle of immobilisation enable the encapsulation of free enzymes or microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, fungi) in a stable porous PVA (polyvinylalcohol) carrier. The carrier‘s advantages are:
• Excellent physio-mechanical characteristics that provide forlong-term mechanical stability
• Low biodegradability• Zero toxicity
Lentikats Biocatalyst enables easy separation of enzymes and microorganisms from the surrounding media and therefore it can be reused multiple times.
Biotechnologies are changingthe world…
Lentikats Biocatalyst
Advantages of using PVA as a matrix for encapsulation:
• inexpensive, non-toxic• polymerization under optimal conditions, cell conservation• enables creation of hydrogels with excellent mechanical
properties• no side effects in processes• large capacity for cell building• easily supervised processes• stable processes• easy separation from bulk media

Lentikats Biocatalyst Production Lentikats Biocatalyst Application
How does Lentikats Biocatalyst function?
Due to its maximum surface and at the same time minimum volume of the Lentikats Biocatalyst, the diffusion limitations associated with the transport of the substrate into the lens and the product out of the lens are significantly reduced.
