Abstract: | Various parameters such as solvent selection, concentration, soaking time, and temperature were tested in a single bioreactor in order to determine optimum extraction conditions of glucoamylase, when produced simultaneously with protease by Aspergillus awamari nakazawa MTCC 6652. Optimum conditions were achieved in a 10% glycerol solution soaked for 2 h at 40°C, followed by concentration of extracted glucoamylase (9,157 U/gds) by acetone precipitation (1:2, v/v), which yielded 51.9% recovery. Ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration showed specific activities of 270.5 and 337.5 U/mg, respectively, while SDS-PAGE and zymogram analysis of glucoamylase indicated the presence of three starch-hydrolyzing isoforms with molecular weights of approximately 109.6, 87.1, and 59.4 kDa, respectively |
