The enzymatic processes are increasingly highlights, especially in the synthesis of chemical products with high added value.The enzyme immobilization can improve industrial biocatalytic processes.The immobilization of enzymes provides the production of efficient, stable biocatalysts, possibility of reuse and easy purification of the products, when compared to the free enzymes.There is a growing research for more efficient methods of enzyme immobilization.In this context, the choice of support and immobilization strategy can significantly improve the final enzymatic properties.In this review paper, we aimed to discuss the versatility of biocatalysts immobilized enzymes design, focusing on the opportunities and disadvantages for each method presented.They discussed the recent development of enzyme immobilization methods and applications relating the final properties of the produced biocatalysts with the desired goals.
