ISOLATION AND ESTIMATION OF SERRATIOPEPTIDASE AND PROPHENOLOXIDASE ENZYME ACTIVITY IN DIFFERENT RACES OF SILKWORM BOMBYX MORI L.
Mamatha C.*, Bela Zutshi and Jayaprakash
Abstract Extraction and estimation of serratiopeptidase and prophenoloxidase enzymes from five different races of silkworm Bombyx mori L. [Bivoltine (PM, NK2), Multivoltine (CSR2, MH1) and Multi-hybrid (RP9×NK2)] has been carried out. Serratiopeptidase activity was analysed by casein hydrolysis method since it is a protease enzyme, while prophenoloxidase by DNS method and total protein content by Lowry’s method. It is found that serratiopeptidase and prophenoloxidase production was more in multi-hybrid (RP9×NK2) compared with those of bivoltine and multivoltine breeds. Keywords: Bivoltine, multivoltine, multi-hybrid, serratiopeptidase, prophenoloxidase. [Full Text Article] [Download Certificate] |
