Abstract
In this proceeding, architecting novel magnetic Cross-Linked-Enzyme-Aggregates (CLEA)
nanoparticles to effectively and controllably modify textile surfaces without damaging the fabric itself, will be
discussed. The efficiency is due to exponentially increased surface concentration of biocatalyst and to the
choice of aggregate size which controls the penetration depth and hence preventing the fabric disruption. In
addition, due to the presence of magnetic nanoparticles, the continuous recovery and reusability makes this
design more economic and ecologic compared to the conventional chemical processes. The careful fabrication
and functionalization of such a design with preliminary results will be presented in this contribution.
