Beta-glucosidase was purified from a crude cellulase preparation from Aspergillus niger by affinity chromatography on a methacrylamide-N-methylene-bis-methacrylamide copolymer bearing cellobiamine. The purified enzyme was a dimer with an isoelectric point of 4.0. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated

Starches from five underutilized tubers (canna, potato, Chinese yam, water chestnut, and taro) were extracted to investigate quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) in each starch using a combination of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Structural parameters of the
