| Analysis Note: | Crude |
| Application: | Phytase has been used in a study to quantify the number of feedstuffs showing significant phytase activity. It has also been used in a study to investigate the effect of adjusting the pH to 5.0 (optimum for wheat phytase) during whole wheat bread making on phytase activity. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Wheat phytase can degrade inositol phosphate-6 and 5 at a pH of 4 and 5. |
| General description: | Phytase catalyzes the hydrolysis of phytic acid to inositol and free orthophosphate. |
| Other Notes: | One unit will liberate 1.0 μmole of inorganic phosphorus from 1.5 mM phytate per min at pH 5.15 at 55 °C. |
