Cellulase, enzyme blend

Uses

Cellulase, enzyme blend has been used for the purpose of enzymatic hydrolysis.

General Description

Cellulase is a member of glycoside hydrolase family and is produced by a number of cellulolytic microbes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cellulase is responsible for the breakdown of insoluble plant polymer cellulosic substrates into soluble sugars, mostly cellobiose and glucose. It specifically catalyzes the hydrolysis of β -1,4 glucosidic bonds in cellulose. Animals do not naturally possess the ability to digest cellulose, but do so with the help of gut microorganisms.
