Comparison of α -amylase from bacterial and plant sources

14 plant and bacterial species were extensively investigated for α-amylase enzyme present in them. Comparison was made on the basis of optimum pH, optimum temperature, Km, Vmax, pH stability range and thermal stability of enzyme. It was found that the plant enzyme is equally good than the bacterial...

Description
Summary:14 plant and bacterial species were extensively investigated for α-amylase enzyme present in them. Comparison was made on the basis of optimum pH, optimum temperature, Km, Vmax, pH stability range and thermal stability of enzyme. It was found that the plant enzyme is equally good than the bacterial enzyme in terms of characteristics.
