ABSTRACT:
Thermostable lactase produced by growth of thermophilic fungi, harvesting resulting mycelium, separating lactase from mycelium by radical rupture of cell structure or by subjecting cell structure to milder treatment which does not separate lactase from the structure, and separating cell debris. Resulting lactase has high degree of activity and is thermostable such that it can be used at relatively high temperatures, e.g. 60.degree. C., and at acid pH to catalyze hydrolysis of lactose to glucose and galactose.
