PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF ALKALINE PECTINASE FROM Bacillus tropicus MCCC 1A01406 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798343638455)

This book is for all the science students and researchers, readers will learn about the basics of isolation and production of enzymes from microbial isolates. For the present study Bacillus tropicus MCCC 1A01406, as well as crude pectinase from this bacterium, was used for the degumming of buel fiber crops Bacillus tropicus alkaline pectinase was used as a catalyst in the synthesis of galacturonic acid from beul (Grewia Optiva) bast fibers. RSM was used to optimize the reaction parameters for the synthesis of galacturonic acid and a second-order response model was calculated. The highest yield of galacturonic acid was 485mmole/g. The optimum reaction conditions for galacturonic acid synthesis were obtained as incubation time of 1.25 h, reaction pH of 8, alkaline pectinase concentration of 2g/l, and temperature of 42 0C.
