Yatalase(Fungal cell wall lytic enzyme)
It is possible to prepare protoplasts from filamentous fungi and easily measure the amount of koji fungus.
It is possible to lyse the cell walls of filamentous fungi and prepare intracellular enzymes.

FAQ
- Is it effective against any type of filamentous fungus?
- Aspergillus oryzaeとTrichoderma reesei,T.viride,T. koningiican be used to prepare protoplasts very efficiently and in reduced amounts.
OtherAspergillusIf protoplasts are difficult to obtain from Ascomycetes, Zygomycetes, and Basidiomycetes, including those of the genus Pseudomonas, we recommend using it in combination with 0.5% cellulase "Onozuka" R-10.
