Article Synopsis
- The demand for enzymes like phytase is growing due to their applications in the food and animal feed industries, prompting a study on purified phytase from the longhorn beetle.*
-
- The enzyme was successfully purified through various methods, achieving an 8.1-fold purification and demonstrating optimal activity at 70°C and pH 7 while maintaining significant activity across a range of pH levels.*
-
- The study found that certain ions affected enzyme activity; some (like Ca and Cu) enhanced it while others (like Hg and EDTA) inhibited it, suggesting potential industrial applications for the uniquely sourced phytase.*
