What is Diffusion Limitations in Immobilized Enzymes about?

This document discusses diffusional limitations that can occur when enzymes are immobilized. There are three main points: 1) Diffusional resistances depend on the support material properties and hydrodynamic conditions, and can significantly impact the reaction rate if diffusion is slow compared to the reaction rate. 2) For enzymes immobilized on nonporous surfaces, diffusion of the substrate through a liquid film can limit the reaction rate at the surface, which can be modeled using a mass transfer equa
