Glutaraldehyde — Pentane-1,5-dial

Like many other useful discoveries, enzyme immobilization by cross-linking was actually an unintended by-product of another research project. In 1964, Florante Quiocho and Frederic Richards at Yale university cross-linked crystals of carboxy-peptidase-A with glutaraldehyde (pentane-1,5-dial), hoping to get stable crystals for X-ray diffraction studies. They noted that these cross-linked enzyme crystals (now... [Pg.204]
