  1. aenzyme preparation produced by KM71/9KGla-ZαAmy. Substrates (0.05 g) in 0.1 M citric acid-sodium citrate buffer (pH 5.0, 5 ml) was mixed with 0.5 ml appropriately diluted enzyme. The reaction was carried out at 60°C for 10 min, and terminated by adding 1 ml of 3, 5-dinitrosalicylic acid and boiled for 5 minutes.
