Biotechnology Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Cell free supernatants, containing β-1,3-glucanase fromBasidiomycete QM 806, dramatically augmented the effect of papain on yeast autolysis. This enables the process time to be significantly reduced and/or the yield of extract to be substantially increased.
