PROCESS TO RECOVER CRYSTALLINE ENZYMES AND CRYSTALLINE ENZYMES PRODUCED THEREBY

摘要

This invention relates to a novel process for the recovery of enzyme crystals. The enzymes may be obtained from any enzyme-producing microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and yeasts. The invention contemplates supersaturation and/or crystallization to obtain enzymes in the crystalline form, and is particularly effective for the recovery of heat stable alpha-amylase in a crystal form.
