Abstract

Alcalase selectively catalyses the hydrolysis of D,L-amino acid methyl and benzyl ester to provide L-amino acid and o-amino acid ester with high optical purity. ... We describe a new and practical enzymatic procedure for ... The enzyme alcalase from Bacillus licheniforms is an ... NOVO, one Anson Unit (AU) is the amount of enzyme which under standard conditions digests haemoglobin at an initial rate liberating per min an amount of TCA soluble product which gives the ...
