| Title: | The maltase of the house cricket Acheta domesticus L. (orthoptera: gryllidae) | Authors: | Teo, L.H. Woodring, J.P. |
Issue Date: | Oct-1992 | Citation: | Teo, L.H.,Woodring, J.P. (1992-10). The maltase of the house cricket Acheta domesticus L. (orthoptera: gryllidae). Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology -- Part B: Biochemistry and 103 (2) : 465-468. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | 1. 1. The optimal pH of maltase of the house cricket was 5.6 and the optimal temperature was 40°C. The apparent activation energy was 5300 cal/mol 2. 2. The 50% inactivation time for maltase at 50°C was 69 min and the 50% inhibition concentration for mercuric chloride was 163μmole. 3. 3. Maltase was only produced by the caecal tissues but its highest activity was found in the foregut lumen and after 5 days of starvation, only 44.6% of the total maltase activity remained. © 1992. | Source Title: | Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology -- Part B: Biochemistry and | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/106917 | ISSN: | 03050491 |
