Identification of some soluble esterases of the carrot (Daucus carota I.)

Creator:

Carino, Lourminia Almeda

Abstract:

Substrate and inhibitor specificities have been used to classify esterases. The purpose of this work was to determine the substrate and inhibitor specificities of the esterases in an aquous extract of lyophilyzed carrots. Esterase activity was determined manometrically at 37°C. The optimum pH of the carrot esterases with several substrates...

Identification of some esterases of the green bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

Creator:

Putnam, Teryl Beebe

Abstract:

This investigation was conducted to differentiate the esterases in a water extract of freeze-dried green beans on the basis of inhibitor and substrate specificities. An attempt was made to classify these esterases according to the criteria used for animal esterases. Activity of the esterases was measured manometrically using the Gilson...

Some carboxylic esterases of the pea (Pisum sativum L.)

Creator:

Norgaard, Marida Jane

Abstract:

Although esterases have been reported in peas, their properties have not been studied. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the substrate and inhibitor specificity of the esterases present in a water extract of lyophilized peas, and to determine if pea esterases could be classified according to the criteria...
