Abstract: | Summary
Silybum marianum plants contain a proteinase with clotting activity which is used for the production of soft cheese. The influence of the concentrations of phytohormones (2,4-D and kinetin), of aminoacids and sucrose on the growth rate and intracellular protein content of calli and suspension cultures was studied. The clotting: proteolytic activity ratio was compared with that of a microbial rennet. |
