Abstract:

The optimal conditions for the hydrolysis of banana corm powder with thermostable alpha-amylase were investigated by single-factor and orthogonal array design methods, and a kinetic analysis of the hydrolysis of banana corm powder was performed. Liquefaction temperature of 85 ℃, pH of 6.4, substrate concentration of 30 mg/mL and enzyme loading of 0.064 mL/g were found optimal, and a DE value of 37.61% was obtained under these conditions. The Vm and Km were determined to be 0.708mg/ (mL·min) and 27.410 mg / mL, respectively.

Key words: banana root corm, thermostable alpha-amylase, kinetics
