N2 - In this work, we investigate the use of aqueous deep eutectic solvents (DESs) consisting of different hydrogen bond acceptors (choline chloride, ammonium salts or betaine) and hydrogen bond donors (amines, sugars and alcohols), as co-solvents in biocatalytic reactions catalyzed by a nano-biocatalyst with β-glucosidase (BGL) activity. For this purpose, β-glucosidase from Thermotoga maritima was immobilized on the surface of green zinc oxide-iron oxide nanoparticles (BGL@ZnOFe) derived from an aqueous olive leaf extract. The covalent bonding of β-glucosidase on the surface of nanoparticles was demonstrated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The effect of a wide range of DES solutions on the biocatalytic features of BGL@ZnOFe was thoroughly investigated. The concentration of DES as well as the specific combination of hydrogen bond acceptors and hydrogen bond donors had a significant impact on the hydrolytic activity of immobilized β-glucosidase. Most choline chloride and betaine-based DESs enhanced the enzymatic activity and thermal stability of BGL@ZnOFe up to 50%. The enzymatic activity of the nano-biocatalyst towards the hydrolysis of bioactive phenolic compounds depends on the nature of the DES used. Choline chloride:butylene glycol-based medium had beneficial effect on a transglycosylation reaction, such as the synthesis of salidroside, increasing the total turnover number of the biocatalytic process by 55%. This work indicates that the use of several choline chloride and betaine-based DESs can be successfully employed as green co-solvents in various hydrolytic and synthetic biocatalytic processes.
