STUDIES ON 3-DEOXYGLUCOSONE-METABOLIZING ENZYME OF MARINE MICROORGANISM / 微生物学通报

A bacterial strain having 3-deoxyglucosone-metabolizing enzyme was selected from 31 marine bacterial stains. The conditions for enzyme production of the strain was examined. The optimal tempreture, initial pH. and cultivate time for enzyme formation were 28℃, pH7.8~8.0, and 96 hours respectively. Composition of the suitable medium was as following (%): Fish peptone 1.0, Sucrose 0.3, Yeast extract 0.2, NaCI 5.0.3-deoxyglucosone can induce formation of enzyme.
