Kinetic characteristics of partially purified invertase from <em>Citrullus lanatus</em> Rind

Abstract: Invertases are enzymes that hydrolyze sucrose to produce equimolar mixture of glucose and fructose. They are widely used in various industrial food applications. The aim of this study was to isolate, partially purify, and characterize invertase from Citrullus lanatus rind. Invertase isolated from C. lanatus rind was purified to 46.94 folds with 23.19% yield by means of ammonium sulphate precipitation, dialysis and Sephadex G-25 gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme has an optimum temperature of 50 °C and m… Show more

“…Invertase (EC 3.2.1.26) is one of the most widely used enzymes in confectionery industry for preparation of jams and candies (Klein et al, 1989). Invertase, also known as -fructofuranosidase, catalyzes the conversion of sucrose, a non-reducing disaccharide, to fructose and glucose, which are reducing monosaccharides (Arise et al, 2020). Inverted sugar syrup is the result of combining glucose and fructose (Mobini-Dehkordi et al, 2008).…”
