Description
Background/Introduction: beta-1,3-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.73) mainly exists in plant, and it catalyzes the hydrolysis of beta-1,3-glucoside bond. Plant cells would induced to synthesize large amounts of beta-1,3- glucanase when they are infected or in extreme environments. Thus, beta-1,3- glucanase enzyme assays are widely applied in the research of plant pathology and adversity physiology. beta-1,3-glucanase could hydrolyse laminarin, and cut beta-1,3-glucoside bond to produce reducing terminus. So generating rates of reducing sugar could calculate the activity of enzymes
