- Unit Definitions
- Mannanase:One hemicellulase unit (HCU) is defined as that activity that will produce a relative fluidity change of 1 over a period of 5 minutes in a locust bean gum substrate under the conditions specified.
- Cellulase:One cellulase unit (CU) is defined as the amount of activity that will produce a relative fluidity change of 1 in 5 minutes in a defined carboxymethyl cellulose substrate under the conditions of the assay (pH4.5 and 40°C).
- Xylanase: One xylanase unit (XU) is defined as the amount of enzyme which liberates 1μmol of xylose per minute under the conditions of the assay (pH 5.3 and 50°C).
- B-Glucanase:One β-glucanase unit (BGU) is defined as that quantity of enzyme that will liberate reducing sugar (as glucose equivalence) at a rate of 1 μmol/minute under the conditions of the assay.
