Effect of Anions of Ca-salts on the Activity of the Bacterial Alkaline Protease

Abstract

Effect of anions of Ca-salts on the activity of the Bacterial Alkaline Protease (BAP) was studied by the Casein-Folin method and it was found that BAP in solution is activated by addition of CaCO₃ among the Ca-salts employed. Activation of BAP in solution by CaCO₃ was greater with lowering of enzyme unit. Stability of BAP in solution was enhanced by the addition of CaCO₃.
