Deep eutectic solvents for the preservation of concentrated proteins: the case of lysozyme in 1 : 2 choline chloride : glycerol
Adrian Sanchez-Fernandez, Sylvain Prévost, Marie Wahlgren
Abstract
A deep eutectic solvent is presented as a sustainable, synthetically accessible, and non-toxic environment for the stabilisation of lysozyme over a wide concentration range, keeping the enzyme stable and functional even after long-term storage.
