Protection of the proteolytic activity of crude papain and chemical modification of papain by tetrathionate
In the first chapter, sodium tetrathionate (TT), a sulfhydryl blocking agent, is assessed for its ability to protect the proteolytic activity (PA) of papaya latex during air, sun or vacuum drying, and of crude papain during storage. By means of Taguchi's L₂₇ (3¹³) fractional factorial design,...
