Abstract

The hybrid hydrogel composed of tubular aluminosilicate nanofiber, "imogolite," and pepsin was prepared in a simple manner. We confirmed the formation of a network structure of imogolite in hydrogel by FE-SEM observations. Pepsin immobilized onto imogolite showed enzymatic activity after repeated reactions.
