چکیده
Various pulses are a good source of β-Amylase and this enzyme could find promising application of hydrolysis of starch. Hydrolysis of starch by β-amylases has couple of food and pharmaceutical applications. In the present work, β-Amylases from a variety of germinating pulses (Vigna radiata, Cicer arietinum (black), Vigna mungo, Glycine max, Cicer arietinum(white) were extracted and characterized for their optimum pH, temperature, time of incubation, substrate concentration, effect of CaCl2 as well as their thermal stability. Various pulses were germinated and then extracted with Phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). The amylase assay was done by Dinitrosalicylic acid method (DNS). Optimum pH was found in the range of 5.5 to 8.5 and Thermal stability of pulses of β-Amylase was found up to 72oC with optimum temperature in the range of 40C to 50C. As well as 6% of CaCl2 was good activator to enhance the enzyme activity with optimum conditions.

متن کاملEvaluation of β-amylase Activity of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas) Cultivated in Iran
Besides the high starch content, sweet potato contains endogenous amylases where the two Predominants are - and β-amylases. Sweet potato is thought to be a promising source of β -amylase since β -amylase is one of the major protein in the tubers. This investigation has focused on the properties of β amylase from white-flesh sweet potato that has been grown in Iran as a potential source for indu...
