General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for waste prevention when used in cellulosic ethanol research. For more information see the article in biofiles.
Cellobiase enzyme preparation obtained by submerged fermentation of an Aspergillus niger microorganism. The cellobiase hydrolyzes cellobiose to glucose.

Application

Cellobiase from Aspergillus niger has been used in a study to assess the targeted antifungal delivery system of a β-Glucosidase sensitive nystatin–star poly(ethylene glycol) conjugate. Cellobiase from Aspergillus niger has also been used in a study to investigate the influence of substrate particle size and wet oxidation on physical surface structures and enzymatic hydrolysis of wheat straw.

Enzymatic hydrolysis of recalcitrant polysaccharides like cellulose takes place on the solid-liquid interface. Therefore the adsorption of enzymes to the solid surface is a pre-requisite for catalysis. Here we used enzymatic activity measurements with fluorescent model-substrate 4-methyl-umbelliferyl-β-D-lactoside for sensitive monitoring

Structural polysaccharides like cellulose and chitin are abundant and their enzymatic degradation to soluble sugars is an important route in green chemistry. Processive glycoside hydrolases (GHs), like cellobiohydrolase Cel7A of Trichoderma reesei (TrCel7A) are key components of efficient enzyme systems.
