i- Specific activity = Total activity / Total protein.
ii- Total activity = Specific activity x Total protein.
iii- Purification fold = Specific activity of purified enzyme / Specific activity of crude enzyme.
iv- Yield (%) = (Total activity of purified enzyme / Total activity of crude enzyme) x 100.
