Abstract
ABSTRACT The present study is focused on the production and purification of nattokinase, a fibrinolytic protease, from B. subtilis TH9 (NatTH9) based on an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) technique. The results showed that the optimal ATPS for NatTH9 recovery was 20% (w/v) polyethylene glycol 6000 and 15% (w/v) potassium phosphate at pH 8. The partitioning coefficient, the partitioning yield, and the activity of NatTH9 were 6.25, 76.7%, and 547.02 U/mg, respectively. The purified NatTH9 demonstrated the ability to degrade fibrin and dissolve the clot. Fibrin zymography showed three clear zones on the gel with molecular weights of approximately 37, 27, and 21 kDa. The optimal pH and temperature of purified NatTH9 were 8 and 39°C, respectively.
期刊介绍:
Food Biotechnology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that is focused on current and emerging developments and applications of modern genetics, enzymatic, metabolic and systems-based biochemical processes in food and food-related biological systems. The goal is to help produce and improve foods, food ingredients, and functional foods at the processing stage and beyond agricultural production.
Other areas of strong interest are microbial and fermentation-based metabolic processing to improve foods, food microbiomes for health, metabolic basis for food ingredients with health benefits, molecular and metabolic approaches to functional foods, and biochemical processes for food waste remediation. In addition, articles addressing the topics of modern molecular, metabolic and biochemical approaches to improving food safety and quality are also published.
Researchers in agriculture, food science and nutrition, including food and biotechnology consultants around the world will benefit from the research published in Food Biotechnology. The published research and reviews can be utilized to further educational and research programs and may also be applied to food quality and value added processing challenges, which are continuously evolving and expanding based upon the peer reviewed research conducted and published in the journal.
