Figure 1: Arabinose release by viscozyme-catalysed arabinan hydrolysis in a batch reaction. Arabinan (5% WV-1) was mixed with viscozyme (54 mg protein ml-1) in ratios of 83 % (VV-1) arabinan and 17% (VV-1) viscozyme. The mixture was incubated at 35°C for 24 h and samples were taken to quantify arabinose amount released in the medium using arabinose calibration curve.
