Description
Microbial amylases are exoenzymes and are used in several industrial applications, such as production of bread, maltose syrups, and fermentation of soya sauce, miso etc. α-Amylase isolated from Aspergillus oryzae has been found to have molecular weights of 51kDa (sedimentation and diffusion) and 49kDa (gel filtration).Application:α-Amylase has been used:as a control enzyme in agar plate-based and carboxymethylcellulose-based clearing assays to screen cellulase activityfor the hydrolysis of starch to explore the the role of wheat starch in frozen doughto inhibit Staphylococcus aureus biofilms
