Upload NowIndustrial production of amylases, glucose isomerase, pectinases, lipases, cellulases and proteases are described in this article. 1. Amylases: Amylases are a complex group of enzymes that hydrolyse polysaccharides like starch and glycogen to glucose. During the hydrolysis of 1, 4-glycoside, linkages present in above polysaccharides are degraded which result first in the formation of short […]

Estimation of Nitrogenase | Enzymes| Biotechnology
Article shared by : 
In this article we will discuss about the principle, requirements and procedure for estimation of nitrogenase. Nitrogenase is possessed by a group of prokaryotes which breaks the triple bond of elemental nitrogen (N≡N) present in the atmosphere and convert it into NH3, an assimilable form for plants. This enzyme can also reduce acetylene to ethylene. […]
