Cellulase is cut by the endo and exo glucanase and β-glucosidase enzyme complex consisting of enzymes, cellulase enzymes can break down insoluble cellulose into glucose and other small molecules, may play a role in plant cell walls to crack,It has been widely used for ethanol production, feed additives, plant extracts and other industries, but in order to make cellulases work best, but be concerned about the stability of cellulase, cellulase then we should pay attention to the course What is the problem?
1, the cellulase enzyme immobilization
Cellulase itself is a protein itself is very unstable and easy to destroy the structure, through continuous research and found that the cellulase enzyme immobilization can improve the stability, improve the efficiency did not get the role. Cellulase enzyme immobilization only with physical or chemical methods the enzyme and a water-insoluble macromolecular carrier combination or the enzyme embedded therein, so that the enzyme in water insoluble gel or microcapsules semipermeable membrane leading to flow reduced, industrial application of cellulase now mostly through the immobilized enzyme.
2,PH cellulase role of the environment
Cellulase because of its properties of the protein itself, if too acid or too alkaline environment under its own structure is very easily destroyed, so the use of the process must be under proper ph environment (typically pH3-6), so as to make cellulase play the biggest role.
3. The role of the environment temperature cellulase
Cellulase by during actuation temperature is very large, the effect of temperature on the enzymatic reaction rate has two aspects: one is within a certain range when the temperature rises, the reaction speed is accelerated; on the other hand, as the temperature increases gradually leaving the enzyme protein denaturation, over a certain range, the reaction rate but lower, resulting in cellulase enzyme inactivation, so the use of cellulase process must pay attention to control the reaction temperature.
