The food enzyme considered in this opinion is a β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2) from soybean submitted by Nagase (Europa) GmbH. This β-amylase is intended to be used in the starch processing for maltose syrup production and the manufacture of a Japanese rice cake type. Based on the maximum use levels
The specific measurement of alpha-amylase activity in crude plant extracts is difficult because of the presence of beta-amylases which directly interfere with most assay methods. Methods compared in this study include heat treatment at 70 degrees C for 20 min, HgCl(2) treatment, and the use of the
The effects of pulsed magnetic field (PMF) treatment of soybean (Glycine max L. cv CO3) seeds were investigated on rate of seed germination, seedling growth, physico-chemical properties of seed leachates and soil microbial population under laboratory conditions. Seeds were exposed to PMF of 1500 nT
This work reports on the use of a three dimensional separation system to enhance metalloprotein information when considering soybean seeds. Separations using size exclusion chromatography (SEC) allowed identification of three metal fractions. Following an anion exchange (AEX) chromatographic
