Application

Application Comment Organism
food industry the enzyme is used for the production of maltose syrup from starch Aspergillus niger

General Stability

General Stability Organism
at atmospheric pressure the enzyme is unstable at 60 and 70°C, while under negative pressure (_-200 mbar) the enzyme shows its activity on the starch at up to 70°C Aspergillus niger

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Ca2+ calcium can stabilize the enzyme activity up to 50°C at atmospheric pressure (% of residual activities at 50, 60, and 70°C are 100, 4.93, 0, respectively) Aspergillus niger

40 70 the enzyme is stable up to 40°C at atmospheric pressure, but the activity of the maltogenic alpha-amylase is drastically reduced above 40°C. Hhigher temperatures (60 and 70°C) are destructive to the enzyme even in the presence of substrate starch Aspergillus niger
