β-Glucanase Usage And Synthesis

Uses

β-Glucanase is used to study cell wall modifications and for carbohydrate hydrolysis. It has been used to supplement barley-based diets for poultry and to study the reopening signal conduits and release of dormancy in the Populus species.

Uses

β -Glucanase was used as a cellulase enzyme in the combined biological and chemical pretreatment method for lignocellulosic ethanol production from energy cane. It was also used in the enzymatic saccharification of cellulose and production of ethanol.

General Description

This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency and waste prevention when used in cellulosic ethanol research.

Flammability and Explosibility

Not classified

Biochem/physiol Actions

A mixture composed mainly of β-1→3 / 1→4-glucanase, xylanase, and cellulase activities. β-glucosidase, β-xylosidase, α-L-arabinofuranosidase, amylase, and protease activities are also present.
