Figure 4

TEM images of ZnO (A) nanopyramids (nPYs), (B) nanoplates (nPLs), and (C) nanospheres (nSPs). (D) Relative catalytic activity of GAL in the presence of three different shaped ZnO NPs after 60 min incubation time. Each relative catalytic activity of GAL with ZnO NPs was normalized with respect to free enzyme activity. The values for (E) Vmax and (F) Km of GAL were calculated from the Michaelis-Menten equation.
