Abstract
Dextranase only have a small market and low volume sales compared to many other industrial enzymes. Consequently, research and development efforts to engineer properties of dextranase to specific conditions of industrial processes have not occurred and are not expected soon. This book chapter highlights the difficulties associated with the practical application of dextranases, that are sometimes applied to hydrolyze dextran in sugar manufacture when bacterial deterioration of sugarcane or sugarbeet has occurred. Less than optimum application existed because of confusion about where to add the dextranase in the factory/refinery and which commercial dextranase to use. The wide variation in activity of commercially available dextranase in the U.S., and a standardized titration method to measure activities at the factory are discussed. Optimization by applying “concentrated” dextranase as a working solution to heated juice is described. Promising short-term technologies to further improve industrial dextranase applications are discussed, as well as the long-term outlook.

pak risvan..terima kasih atas info-infonya di website ini,sangat bermanfaat untuk penelitian saya. kalo boleh tau, kira-kira literatur apa saja yang berhubungan dengan teknologi filtrasi nira dengan membran?terima kasih pak.
@nina, banyak tuh kalau minta tolong mbah google.. atu bisa di http://chemicalhandbook.blogspot.com/2009/06/membran.html
