Characterization and purification of protease extracted from "noni" (Morinda Citrifolia L.) at two maturity stages / Nurulain Abd Razak.
Protease was extracted from two maturity stages of noni fruits (Morinda citrifolia L.), unripe (stage 1) and ripe (stage 5) and then purified using acetone precipitation, dialysis, gel filtration (Sephadex G-25) and freeze drying. Protease obtained from each of purification step "was analysed f...
