Abstract:
Objective To search for the optimal processing procedure and physico-chemical properties of Endothelium corneum amylase. Methods After dried under 50 ℃ ,amylase was extracted from Endothelium corneum with phosphate-buffered saline. The amylase activity was examined at different temperature,pH and different metal ions,and amylase isozyme was discerned on PAGE. Results The optimal pH,optimal temperature,and optimal substrate concentration for amylase activity were 8.67,50 ℃ and 1.8 g/mL,respectively. Under the experimental conditions,the amylase Km was 0.92 (starch was used as substrate of amylase). Four metal ions tested,including Ca2+,Fe2+,Zn2+,Mn2+,could inhibit the amylase activity to some extent. Furthermore,it showed one amylase isozyme band using PAGE,suggesting only one amylase isozyme existing in the Endothelium corneum tentatively. Conclusion The effects of metal ions should be considered in the process of Endothelium corneum amylase.
