  • Enzymes with xylanase activity from Aspergillus aculeatus
    Patent number: 6197564
    Abstract: A DNA construct encoding an enzyme(s) exhibiting xylanase activity, which enzyme is immunologically reactive with antibody raised against a purified xylanase derived from Aspergillus aculealus, CBS 101.43, recombinant vectors and cells comprising said construct and a method for producing said enzyme using said cell comprising said construct.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 22, 1998
    Date of Patent: March 6, 2001
    Assignee: Novo Nordisk A/S

  • Enzymes with xylanase activity from Aspergillus aculeatus
    Patent number: 6080567
    Abstract: An enzyme exhibiting xylanase activity, which enzyme is immunologically reactive with antibody raised against a purified xylanase derived from Aspergillus aculeatus, CBS 101.43. The enzyme may be used for degrading plant cell wall components, e.g., in the preparation of feed, in baking, in the paper and pulp industry, and in connection with separation of wheat into starch and gluten.

  • Processing plant material with xylanase
    Patent number: 5874274
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for reducing the viscosity of a plant material, which process comprises treating the plant material with a xylanase having i) a WSPS per mg protein added which is higher than 0,06, and/or ii) a WSPU per mg protein added which is higher than 15, and/or iii) a specific activity of more than 0,053 FVRU/mg protein. Further, the invention relates to use of a xylanase preparation for separating a plant material, such as wheat, into separate useful components as well as processes for such viscosity reduction or separation.
