| Abstract: | Alliinase (alkylsulphenate lyase, EC 4.4.1.4), which catalyses the production of allicin, was immobilized in alginate microparticles.
Addition of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate to the microparticles enhanced alliinase activity. Encapsulated alliinase were significantly
higher (30 and 22%, respectively) than those of non-encapsulated alliinase at 60°C and at pH 2. Therefore, microencapsulation
of alliinase with alginate can offer an effective way of sustaining enzyme activity during oral administration and passage
through the stomach. |
