Amylases are important hydrolase enzymes which have been widely used since many
decades. These enzymes randomly cleave internal glycosidic linkages in starch molecules …

Amylases are one of the most important and oldest industrial enzymes. These comprise
hydrolases, which hydrolyse starch molecules to fine diverse products as dextrins, and …

There are in nature two widely distributed carbon sources, starch and cellulose, which
maintain most forms of life. These polymers are composed of glucose units which have …

This article reviews, in brief, the important industrial uses of starch and starch processing in
industry. The other aspects discussed include the main enzymes involved in starch …

This article surveys methods for the enzymatic conversion of starch, involving hydrolases
and nonhydrolyzing enzymes, as well as the role of microorganisms producing such …

A strain of Bacillus licheniformis isolated from soil produced an extracellular α-amylase (s)
with unusual characteristics. The enzyme was purified 126-fold by starch adsorption, DEAE …

Solid-state fermentation was carried out for the production of alpha-amylase using
Aspergillus oryzae. Different oil cakes such as coconut oil cake (COC) sesame oil cake …

An α-amylase produced by Scytalidium thermophilum was purified using DEAE-cellulose
and CM-cellulose ion exchange chromatography and Sepharose 6B gel filtration. The …

Amylases are among the most important enzymes used in modern biotechnology
particularly in the process involving starch hydrolysis. Fungal amylase has large …

In this study, dietary supplementations of Korean Meju, fermented soybean meal (F-SBM) by
Aspergillus oryzae, and A. oryzae itself were evaluated on growth performance, feed …
