This study was conducted to investigate the production of water-soluble carbohydrates (WSCs) by treatment of different amounts of rice straw with cellulase, hemicellulase, and xylanase. Treatment of high amounts of rice straw (100 g/l) with cellulase and hemicellulase resulted in similar production of WSCs. Reducing the amount of rice straw to 50 g/l decreased the production of WSCs by hemicellulase but had no effect on WSC production by cellulase. The interaction among rice straw amounts, and hemicellulase and xylanase activities was investigated using a Box Behnken design and a response surface model. An interaction was found only between hemicellulase and xylanase. An enzyme mixture consisting of 0.55 mg/ml of hemicellulase and 0.65 mg/ml of xylanase generated the highest amounts of WSCs, regardless of the amount of rice straw provided. Therefore, the activity of cellulase was higher than that of either hemicellulose or xylanase for WSC production from rice straw. The interaction observed for hemicellulase and xylanase indicates that a combined enzyme treatment could improve the production of WSCs from rice straw.

Two methods were used to extract pectin from apple cell wall by enzyme(Hemicellulase) and by acid. Hemicellulase was used to extract high functional pectin with higher degree of polymerization. The yield of weight of pectin by hemicellulase treatment was slightly higher than that by acid treatment. The optimal condition for extraction was accomplished by providing 1.5 grams of Hemicellulase at 38$^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The comparison of the pectin purity and the yield of extracts by the portion of galacturonic acid between two methods showed that the purity of pectin extracted by enzymatic method was lower than that by acid treatment.

Barley leaves tea white bread were prepared by the addition of 0.005, 0.010, 0.015, and 0.020% hemicellulase to flour of the basic formulation. The experiments and control were then compared in terms of quality characteristics, including pH, total titratable acidity, fermentation power of dough expansion, specific volume, baking loss, moisture content, color, textural characteristics, internal surface appearances, and sensory qualities in order to determine the optimal ratio of hemicellulase in the formulation. There were no significant differences in pH and total titratable acidity of dough and bread among the experiments. Fermentation power of dough expansion were increased as incubation time increased. Bread made by the addition of hemicellulase had significantly higher specific volume than the control group. However, lightness and yellowness showed the reverse effect. Greenness was not significantly different among the samples. Baking loss was the highest at the 0.020% addition level, and moisture content was maximal with the 0.010% addition, while the lowest in the control bread samples. As hemicellulase contents increased, harness and fracturability decreased. Resilience was maximal with the 0.015% addition, and was minimal in the 0.005% group. In the sensory evaluation, color, flavor, softness, overall acceptability, barley leaves flavor, delicious taste, astringency, bitterness, and off-flavor were not significantly different among the samples. In coclusion, the results indicate that adding 0.010% hemicellulase in barley leaves tea white bread is optimal for quality and provides a product with reasonably high overall acceptability.

The objective of this study was to increase the efficiency of starch extraction from potato sludge by different concentration of food-grade hemicellulase. The potato sludge, which is a by-product of potato processing industry, was treated with food-grade hemicellulase. Starch extraction efficiency displayed no significant difference in hemicellulase concentration. The purities of potato starch increased from 83.40 to 95.91, 97.44, 95.58, and 97.79%, with treated 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, and 1.5% hemicellulase, respectively. The physicochemical properties of the starches, such as granule structure, particle size, pasting, and thermal transition, were not affected by the concentration of hemicellulase. These results indicate that food-grade hemicellulase treatment is an efficient method for starch extraction from potato sludge.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimization mixing ratio of wheat sprout powder (WSP) and hemicellulase for the preparation of white pan bread. Using a response surface methodology, independent variables were WSP and hemicellulase. Dependent variables were physicochemical properties, antioxidant properties and sensory evaluation. Water binding capacity of dough increased with increasing WSP. Color value showed positive correlations with WSP. L value decreased and a, b values increased as WSP increased. The adjusted determination coefficient of texture analysis was calculated to be 0.7230~0.9446 having the p-value less than 0.1. Specific volume of bread showed a positive correlation with hemicellulase and a negative correlation with WSP. DPPH radical scavenging activity and total polyphenol were represented by a linear model and showed positive correlations with WSP. Sensory evaluation were represented by a quadratic model. In conclusion, the optimal formulation for WSP added bread, as assessed by numerical and graphical optimization methods, was WSP 2.36%, hemicellulase 0.069% per wheat flour 100 g. The above results indicate that WSP can be used as health-oriented material in the bread industry. This is also expected to meet demands of consumers who are in the pursuit of healthy food.

Aspergillus oryzae is a filamentous fungus classified in the group Aspergillaceae Ascomycetes. It is an important microorganism for industrial production of enzymes and fermented food productions. The genetic transformation system in A. oryzae was used to protoplast mediated transformation with PEG/$CaCl_2$. When the protoplast was used, the regeneration efficiency was decreased and then transformation frequence was also effected. In this study, fungal transformation was carried out by bypassing the protoplast isolation step, changing enzymes, such as hemicellulase and celluclast, and decreasing the culturing time for the increment of the transformation efficiency. 83 transformants/10ug of DNA with hemicellulase were obtained, compared with less than 10 transformants with novozyme234 and celluclast.

Kappa number and brightness were more increased with treatment of endo-xylanase than hydrogen-peroxide. In pulp bleaching process, endo-xylanse was most effective in the other enzyme treatment. Exo-xylanase was effective more than 4 unit treatment. Kappa number was tiny increased with enzyme ratio, but less than 4 unit treatment, increased with hydrogen peroxide treatment ratio. In more than 4 unit acetyl-estease treatment, Kappa number and brightness were not influenced with enzyme treatment ratio, but concentration of hydrogen-peroxide.

Objective: This study investigated the association of enzyme-producing microbes and their enzymes with starch and hemicellulose degradation during fermentation of total mixed ration (TMR) silage. Methods: The TMRs were prepared with soybean curd residue, alfalfa hay (ATMR) or Leymus chinensis hay (LTMR), corn meal, soybean meal, vitamin-mineral supplements, and salt at a ratio of 25:40:30:4:0.5:0.5 on a dry matter basis. Laboratory-scale bag silos were randomly opened after 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, and 56 days of ensiling and subjected to analyses of fermentation quality, carbohydrates loss, microbial amylase and hemicellulase activities, succession of dominant amylolytic or hemicellulolytic microbes, and their microbial and enzymatic properties. Results: Both ATMR and LTMR silages were well preserved, with low pH and high lactic acid concentrations. In addition to the substantial loss of water soluble carbohydrates, loss of starch and hemicellulose was also observed in both TMR silages with prolonged ensiling. The microbial amylase activity remained detectable throughout the ensiling in both TMR silages, whereas the microbial hemicellulase activity progressively decreased until it was inactive at day 14 post-ensiling in both TMR silages. During the early stage of fermentation, the main amylase-producing microbes were Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (B. amyloliquefaciens), B. cereus, B. licheniformis, and B. subtilis in ATMR silage and B. flexus, B. licheniformis, and Paenibacillus xylanexedens (P. xylanexedens) in LTMR silage, whereas Enterococcus faecium was closely associated with starch hydrolysis at the later stage of fermentation in both TMR silages. B. amyloliquefaciens, B. licheniformis, and B. subtilis and B. licheniformis, B. pumilus, and P. xylanexedens were the main source of microbial hemicellulase during the early stage of fermentation in ATMR and LTMR silages, respectively. Conclusion: The microbial amylase contributes to starch hydrolysis during the ensiling process in both TMR silages, whereas the microbial hemicellulase participates in the hemicellulose degradation only at the early stage of ensiling.

The dried cinnamon was extracted with enzymes, salts, sugars and additives in order to find the most effective extraction material. Enzymatic hydrolysis of cinnamon suspension with cellulase, hemicellulase, pectinase, ${\beta}-1.4-glucosidase$, tannase and lipase showed a little increase of their cinnamic aldehyde contents. Solid yield, antioxidant activity and degree of browning were increased in hemicellulase treatment. Acid and alkali extraction of cinnamon showed a some increase in solid yields and antioxidant activity was increased by addition of glucose and Na-ascorbate. Cinnamic aldehyde contents and degree of browning were increased in extraction with Na-citrate addition.
