We recommend the use of the Megazyme product E-BARBP (beta-amylase, powder form) for the preparation of beta-limit dextrin. The EBC alpha-amylase method recommends the use of 250 mg of beta-amylase at 2000 degrees Lintner. The Megazyme product is 5000 degrees Lintner, so 100 mg is used (instead of 250 mg) to prepare the beta-limit dextrin. This enzyme preparation has been evaluated and approved by a special committee of ASBC (following interlaboratory evaluation).
Can beta-amylase (E-BARBP / E-BARBL) be used to analyse alpha-amylase by ASBC-method?
