food industry | the enzyme is used for the production of maltose syrup from starch | Aspergillus niger |
General Stability | Organism |
---|---|
at atmospheric pressure the enzyme is unstable at 60 and 70°C, while under negative pressure (_-200 mbar) the enzyme shows its activity on the starch at up to 70°C | Aspergillus niger |
Metals/Ions | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
Ca2+ | calcium can stabilize the enzyme activity up to 50°C at atmospheric pressure (% of residual activities at 50, 60, and 70°C are 100, 4.93, 0, respectively) | Aspergillus niger |

40 | 70 | the enzyme is stable up to 40°C at atmospheric pressure, but the activity of the maltogenic alpha-amylase is drastically reduced above 40°C. Hhigher temperatures (60 and 70°C) are destructive to the enzyme even in the presence of substrate starch | Aspergillus niger |
