General Stability

General Stability Organism
ultrasound treatment causes inactivation of polygalacturonase in the temperature range 50-75°C, while at 50°C only the labile PG fraction (isoform PG 2) is inactivated Solanum lycopersicum

Temperature Stability [°C]

Temperature Stability Minimum [°C] Temperature Stability Maximum [°C] Comment Organism
50 75 thermal treatment at 50°C does not have a significant effect on the activity of polygalacturonase in tomato juice, at temperatures between 50 and 75°C, thermal treatment results in partial enzyme inactivation, isoform PG2 is heat-labile and is totally inactivated after a 5 min treatment at 65°C. Thermosonication enhances the inactivation kinetics of isoform PG2 4fold at 60°C while the enhancement decreases to 2.3fold at 75°C Solanum lycopersicum
