crude enzyme (beta-galactosidase) extract (cee) was produced by lactobacillus ssp. bulgaricus chr hansen lb-12 and was applied in sterile milk which had been processed through ultra high temperature method (uht milk), for hydrolyzing lactose. lactosehydrolyzed milk was also produced by a pure and commercially available betagalactosidase (maxilact). optimum quantities of cee and maxilact enz...

proper conditions for producing crude beta-galactosidase from waste materials were de-termined. this enzyme is to be used in the production of lactose-hydrolyzed milk. whey permeate was used as a basic medium. twenty seven treatments were developed by 3 vary-ing factors of: yeast extract (1, 2, and 3 %), wheat steep liquor (1, 2, and 3 %), and whey powder (0.5, 1, and 1.5 %). crude enzyme extra...

Lipases produced by a newly isolated Sporidiobolus pararoseus strain have potential catalytic ability for esterification reactions. After production, the enzymatic extracts (conventional crude and precipitated, 'CC' and 'CP', and industrial crude and precipitated, 'IC' e 'IP') were partially characterized. The enzymes presented, in general, higher specificity for short chain alcohols and fatty ...

We report the effect of Stryphnodendron adstringens on the trypanosomatid Herpetomonas samuelpessoai. The parasites were grown at 28 degrees C in a chemically defined medium containing crude extract and fractions at concentrations from 100 to 5000 microg/ml obtained from S. adstringens. Concentrations of 500, 1000, 2500, and 5000 microg/ml both crude extract and semi-purified fraction progressi...

In this work, a lipase-catalyzed selective enzymatic hydrolysis of the borage oil was carried out using commercial enzymes and native crude enzymatic extract from Brazil as biocatalysts for the reaction. Two crude enzymatic extracts home-produced and three commercial lipases were screened for concentrating γlinolenic acid of the triacylglycerols in unhydrolyzed acylglycerols. The kinetics of en...

Among sixty one yeast isolates from various samples, twelve were capable of producing phytase. Out of twelve, 5 isolates showed maximum phytase activity. CB3 isolate was selected for further study. CB3 isolate was genetically characterized as Candida parapsilosis. The crude extract was optimized for maximum enzyme activity. The enzyme was stable between the pH 2 to 7 but the optimal pH was foun...

The crude enzyme fraction was isolated from the fresh unripe fruits of Momordica charantia Linn and screened for its amylolytic and lipolytic activity according to standard literatures. The results indicated that the crude enzyme fraction is having effective amylolytic and lipolytic activities. These enzymatic activitieis of the extract substantiate the validity of claims made in traditional sy...

Crude extract of kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea gongylodes) was prepared by a simple procedure and its enzymatic activity and total protein concentration were determined. It was found that this crude extract is a rich source of peroxidase (POx) and has high specific activity. Cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone was used as a stabilizer in the preparation of the crude extract. The POx activity of koh...
