Myoglobin entrapment in poly(vinyl alcohol) dense membranes

Our goal in this study was the immobilization of myoglobin in poly(vinyl alcohol) dense membranes. Glutaraldehyde was investigated both as the crosslinking agent, aiming to increase the membrane stability in aqueous medium, and as the vehicle to bind myoglobin and PVA. Reaction and membrane synthesi...
