Rapid and accurate quantification of trypsin activity using integrated infrared and ultraviolet spectroscopy with data fusion techniques.

Proteases play a crucial role in industrial enzyme formulations, with activity fluctuations significantly impacting product quality and yield. Therefore, developing a method for precise and rapid detection of protease activity is paramount. This study aimed to develop a rapid and accurate method for quantifying trypsin activity using integrated infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy combined with data fusion techniques.

Adaptability to the environment of protease by secondary structure changes and application to enzyme-selective hydrolysis.

The reactions involving enzymes are significantly influenced by various environmental factors. Clarity of how the activity and structure of proteases impact their function is crucial for more efficient application of enzymes as a tool. The impact of temperature, pH, and ionic strength on changes in protease activity, secondary structure, and protein conformation during enzymatic hydrolysis were investigated in this study.
