In the enzyme-containing paper of the present invention, the concentration of the enzyme is arbitrarily selected according to the purpose of use of the enzyme-containing paper. However, if the concentration of glycerin is too low, high enzyme activity is expected to be maintained. On the other hand, if it is too high, it is inconvenient to handle. Therefore, it is usually determined appropriately from the range of 1 to 30% by weight in consideration of the enzyme elution rate and the like.

That is, the enzyme is a high molecular weight protein having a molecular weight of tens of thousands to tens of minutes, and when simply impregnated on filter paper or the like, the enzyme shrinks together with the shrinkage of the paper (cellulose) during drying. Deform
It is presumed that, in the presence of glycerin, the contraction of cellulose is prevented, and as a result, the above-mentioned deformation of the enzyme is prevented, and the substrate specificity of the enzyme is maintained.

In the enzyme-containing paper of the present invention, the enzyme is easily eluted although it depends on the glycerin concentration, because the enzyme has a large affinity for glycerin, and therefore, the adhesion of the enzyme to cellulose decreases. At the same time, it is presumed that glycerin prevents shrinkage due to drying of the paper and facilitates elution of the enzyme.
