摘要:
The present invention relates to an alpha-amylase blend, including a B. stearothermophilus alpha-amylase (AmyS) wherein the amino acid at position S242 is substituted and a B. licheniformis alpha-amylase blends for starch liquefaction and saccharification, ethanol production, and a sweetener production.
摘要:
Provided herein are variants of Buttiauxella sp. phytases that may be used in industrial applications including methods for starch liquefaction, alcohol fermentations and for enhancing phosphate digestion in foods and animal feeds.
摘要:
Methods for the production of substrate, tuber, and grain compositions containing isomalto-oligosaccharides are described. The methods comprise (a) contacting a substrate, tuber or grain containing ungelatinized starch with a maltogenic enzyme and a starch liquefying enzyme to produce maltose; (b) contacting said maltose with a transglucosidic enzyme, wherein said steps (a) and step (b) occur at a temperature less than or at a starch gelatinization temperature; and (c) obtaining a substrate, grain or tuber composition having an enzymatically produced isomalto-oligosaccharide, wherein the oligosaccharide is derived from the grain. The maltogenic enzyme can be either exogenous or endogenous to the grain. The contacting steps can be sequential or concurrent. The present invention also describes flour, oral rehydrating solutions, beer adjuncts, food, feed, beverage additives incorporating the grain compositions made as described.
摘要:
Disclosed are compositions comprising variants of alpha-amylase that have alpha-amylase activity and which exhibit altered properties relative to a parent AmyS-like alpha-amylase from which they are derived. The compositions comprise an additional enzyme such as a phytase. Also disclosed are methods of using the compositions, and kits related thereto.
摘要:
The invention relates to an acid stable levan sucrase derived from Bacillus licheniformis NRRL B-19862. The levan sucrase is produced by culturing Bacillus licheniformis NRRL B-19862 in a suitable nutrient medium but in the absence of sucrose. The invention also discloses compositions containing the levan sucrase.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for the extraction of lipase from mammalian tissue with which it is associated which involves contacting the tissue with an alkaline, aqueous medium having a pH of from greater than 7.0 up to a level at which the alkalinity will deactivate the lipase.
摘要:
Antifoaming agents are commonly used during culturing of enzyme-producing microorganisms. These antifoams often persist through enzyme processing, slowing filtrations, clogging filtration membranes and adversely affecting the quality of the final product. The present invention describes a method for removing antifoams, and often carbohydrates and pigments, from enzyme systems using mineral clay, the preferred clay being bentonite.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for causing the dissociation of microbial mycelium and extracellular lipase bound thereto and increasing the measurable activity of the lipase. The method involves treating an aqueous suspension of the mycelium with the anhydride of a dicarboxylic acid which results in dissociation of the mycelium and lipase thereby facilitating recovery of the lipase.
摘要:
The process of the invention comprises disrupting microbial protein containing cells; derivatizing the resultant mixture comprising protein and nucleic acid with an acid anhydride; and then isoelectrically precipitating a nucleic acid diminished protein containing fraction from a nucleic acid enriched supernatant.
摘要:
A dry solids staging fermentation process for producing an end-product, such as ethanol is disclosed said process including an initial fermentation step including combining a first fermentable substrate with one or more starch hydrolyzing enzymes and fermenting organisms in a fermentation vessel and a loading step which includes adding a second fermentable substrate to the fermentation vessel wherein the percent dry solids (% DS) of the fermentation broth increases over time.
