Starch is used as a raw material in many processed foods and in industrialized products for
non-food purposes. However, in their native form or after gelatinization, starches do not …

Owing to the production of alpha, beta and gamma amylase subtypes; starch degrading
microbes, especially bacteria have an invincible role in the food, fermentation, textile and …

Amylases are one of the most important and oldest industrial enzymes. These comprise
hydrolases, which hydrolyse starch molecules to fine diverse products as dextrins, and …

Starch is a polymer of glucose linked to one another through the C1 oxygen, known as the
glycosidic bond. Amylases are capable of digesting these glycosidic linkages found in …

In spite that lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are used for production of fermented foods and drinks
for millennia, their ability to grow using starch as a sole carbon source was noticed by the …

Enzymes are biological catalysts which regulate specific biochemical reactions. In recent
years, the potential of using microorganisms as biotechnological sources of industrially …

Two multienzyme bacterial preparations of α‐amylase of Bacillus licheniformis and
Amylosubtilin® were used in order to modify potato starch at various enzyme concentrations …

Amylases are one of the main enzymes used in industry. Such enzymes hydrolyze the starch
molecules into polymers composed of glucose units. Amylases have potential application in …

This review covers the progress made in research on microbial alpha-amylase, a highly
demanded industrial enzyme in various sectors such as food, pharmaceuticals, textiles …

This review makes a comprehensive survey of microbial amylases, ie alpha-amylase, beta-
amylase and glucoamylase. Amylases are among the most important enzymes and are of …
