Precipitation of xylanase produced by M. circinelloides and M. hiemalis using different acetone concentrations.
| Ratio (crude : acetone) | Xylanase activity (U/mL) | |
|---|---|---|
| M. circinelloides | M. hiemalis | |
| 1 : 1 | 6.92 ± 0.22c | 5.19 ± 022c |
| 1 : 2 | 5.41 ± 0.27d | 3.68 ± 0.27d |
| 1 : 3 | 7.25 ± 0.07c | 5.52 ± 0.07c |
| 1 : 4 | 11.89 ± 0.23a | 10.73 ± 0.77a |
| 1 : 5 | 9.59 ± 0.34b | 8.38 ± 0.87b |
The data were given as averages of three replicates (mean ± SD). Values followed by the different letters are significantly different at p < 0.05.
