The goal of this work is to study the optimum production of L-ASNase and the influence of oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (ox-MWCNTs) on the biological activity of the isolated L-ASNase. Isolation and production of L-ASNase from different screened fungi in the presence of L-asparagine substrate were carried out. The isolated enzyme was identified by molecular18S rRNA analysis. The partial purified L-ASNase having 6.77 purification fold was immobilized onto ox-MWCNTs using physical adsorption technique with maximum yield about 54.4%. In vitro cytotoxicity of L-ASNase against normal fibroblast cell line (BHK-21) was examined relative to the immobilized one using SRB assay. Also, in vivo biological examination using liver and kidney dysfunction biomarkers in the treated mice (AST, ALT, LDH, lipase and α-amylase) was also investigated. Among the ten screened fungi, Aspergillus versicolor was the most potent one with maximum activity about 45.5 U/mL. The results showed that the most appropriate production condition was at asparagine concentration of about 0.04 M and pH 8. The immobilized L-ASNase retained a complete activity (100%) after 30 min at 45ᴼC of incubation relative to that in case of the free one. The toxicity of L-ASNase was significantly decreased up to 50 μg/mL after immobilization onto MWCNTs. Besides, the immobilized L-ASNase exhibited good storage ability and stability at high temperature relative to that in case of the free one.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have excellent chemical, physical, and biological properties such as strong cell adhesion, protein adsorption and cell proliferationin vitro. Excellent osteocompatibility for the CNT monolith was also reported in vivo. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of anodized titanium coated with multiwalled CNTs (MWCNTs) on human osteosarcoma Saos2 cells and bone tissue. Saos2 cells on CNT-Ti showed excellent proliferation with extension of cell morphology in all directions. CNT-Ti wire was implanted in the bone marrow of femurs of rats. At 2 weeks after surgery, histological investigations revealed that bone tissue attached to the surface of the CNT-Ti directly. Thus the surface modification of anodized Ti by MWCNTs can be effective for bone formation.
