METHOD FOR SEPARATION OF CRYSTAL OF AMINO ACID OR NUCLEIC ACID

摘要

Disclosed is a technique for separating a crystal of an amino acid or a nucleic acid from a fermentation solution or an enzymatic reaction solution containing a microbial cell in a simple manner. The method comprises adding an enzyme capable of lysing the microbial cell to a slurry containing the crystal of the amino acid or the nucleic acid and the microbial cell to lyse the cell, and collecting the crystal from the slurry, thereby separating the crystal from the slurry.
