Abstract

- Enzyme activity/stability can be improved upon immobilization on nanoparticles (NPs).
- Five underlying physicochemical mechanisms describe enzyme-NP activity.
- Carbon, metal, and polymeric nanomaterials as well as quantum dots can be enzyme carriers.
- Applications of enzyme-NPs include sensing, energy production, and drug delivery.
