Two of the most important factors affecting the rate of catalysis by “insolubilized” enzymes are the rate of diffusion of substrate molecules from the bulk of the solution to the attached enzyme1,2 and the interaction between the charged groups on the support material and the charged groups of the substrate molecules3.
