Abstract: The effects of utilizing some cellulase,a product being brought by high biological technology were investigated to increase the ratio of swelled beans and the yield of bean curd by steeping in water to degrade the cell walls and extract protein during the process of the production of bean curd .The tested results showed that cellulase and hemicellulase could well degrad of the cell walls when steeping the soybean in water.The most suitable condition was steeping the soybean with 0.1% cellulase at 28℃ during 6h.The pH range of 5~6 was generally suitable.

Key words: cellulase , Degradation , The ration of swelled beans , The yield of bean cake
