Abstract |
: |
Although conventional and unconventional starting materials for enzyme production are available in developing countries, including Saudi Arabia, no real enzyme production technology exists till now. Indeed, many industrial, medical and environmental applications used the enzymes replaced the conventional chemical methods. In this project, the production of enzymes for using in food industries specially the fruit juice industry will be carried out for increasing the quantity of juice and improving its degree of clarity. The production of these enzymes from local and inexpensive sources is very important for production of large quantities with low cost. This study will be lead to construct technology for production of enzymes and their different applications. The purification of α-amylase from germinated seeds of wheat and barley, and polygalacturonase from fungi grown on orange peel (farm waste materials) will be carried out using ion exchange chromatography technique. The physical and chemical characterization of these enzymes, which meet the prerequisites needed for fruit juice processing, with respect to pH optimum, optimum temperature, thermal stability, Km, effect of different metals will be studied. Testing the effect of α-amylase and polygalacturonase on fruit juice industry through the determination of the quantity, degree of clarity and stability of the juice. |
