Thermal kinetic parameters of the purified A. fumigatus Amidase
| Temp (°C) | T1/2 (h) | Kr (min) × 10–3 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 250 | 0.002 | |
| 20 | 75.7 | 0.15 | |
| 30 | 29.93 | 0.245 | |
| 40 | 16.30 | 0.499 | |
| 50 | 13.37 | 0.832 | |
*Half-life time (T1/2) was expressed by the time at which the enzyme retains 50% of its initial activity by preheating without substrate at each temperature degree
**Thermal denaturation rate (Kr) was expressed by the logarithmic decreasing of enzyme activity with the time at each temperature
(ln (At/A0) =−Kr, where A0 and At are the specific activity of Asnase at zero and t time
It is described by the first-order kinetic model
