Abstract: The feruloyl oligosaccharide was prepared from wheat bran by xylanase. The results indicated that the activity of xylanase was strongly affected by metal ions. K+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Ag+, Zn2+, and Co2+ could activate xylanase, and Mn2+, Ag+, Zn2+ and Co2+ showed stronger promoting effect. The activating effect of Zn2+ was positively dependent on its concentration within a certain range, but excessively high concentration inhibited the activity of the enzyme. However, EDTA, Sn2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Hg2+ and Mg2+ were inhibitors of the enzyme. Less xylanase was required when adding a certain concentration of metal ions during preparation of feruloyl oligosaccharide.

Key words: wheat bran, metal ions, xylanase, feruloyl oligosaccharide
