Title: | Studies on isolation, purification and properties of Endoglucanase from the hepatopancreas of Perna viridis |

Abstract: | In the attempt to find out catalytic potency and properties of the endoglucanase
of green mussel, it could be highlighted that the enzyme is efficient in degrading
carboxymethylcellulose to reducing sugars. The immobilized enzyme will find
applications in the food industry, paper and pulp industry, wood preservation,
alcohol and pharmaceutical industry.The purification method employed i.e. Sephadex G100 chromatography
employing affinity and exclusion principles simplify the purification procedure.Addition of Mg2+ and Co2+ at 10mM concentrations enhances endoglucanase
activity of green mussel.The immobilized endoglucanase can be used for deinking mixed office waste
paper. The endoglucanase if supplemented with exoglucanase and B-glucosidase
under appropriate conditions would help in the recycling of paper. |
