Recovery of acid fungal protease.

摘要

Glucoamylase and acid fungal protease co-produced by the fermentation of fungal species capable of producing these enzymes are separated by carrying out the fermentation at a pH at which the protease associates itself with the fungal mycelium and removing the mycelium from the fermentation broth. The mycelium is then resuspended in an aqueous medium and the pH adjusted to cause the disassociation of the protease and mycelium with subsequent recovery of the protease from the aqueous medium.
