Abstract: The effect of active carbon on theβ- mannanase of Bacillus subtilis was investigated. The results showed that carbonwas found to be very effective for decolorizing crude beta-mannanase. The conditions of using 3% carbon, treated at 50℃ andpH 6.5 for a duration of 2h were optimal for decolorizing and purifying the enzyme. Under these conditions, the enzyme couldbe purified by 3.77±0.15 fold with a yielding recovery of 86.19%±2.99%.

Key words: active carbon, β- mannanase, purification, decolorizing
