Traditional covalent immobilization of enzymes was mostly operated within water phase. However, most of enzymes are flexible when they are in water environment, and the covalent reactions generally lead to complete or partial activity losing due to the protein conformational changes.This paper examined enzyme covalent immobilization operated in micro-aqueous organic media, to display the differences between two environments of immobilization within water and micro-aqueous organic solvent by activity and stability determination of the resulting immobilized enzymes. Catalase, trypsin, horseradish peroxidase, laccase and glucose oxidase have been employed as model enzymes. Results showed the thermal, pH and reusable stabilities of the micro-aqueous organic covalently immobilized enzymes were improved when compared with the immobilized enzymes within water. Micro-aqueous covalent immobilization showed a remarkable advantage in remaining the enzymes catalytic activity for all the five enzymes compared with the traditional water phase immobilization. And the optimum pH values for both immobilization within water and micro-aqueous organic media shifted slightly.

► Catalase, trypsin, horseradish peroxidase, laccase and glucose oxidase were studied.
► They were immobilized within micro-aqueous organic media covalently.
► These immobilized enzymes showed higher activity compared to water-immobilized ones.
► The micro-aqueous immobilized enzymes also retained good stability.
