Abstract
The rate of hydrolysis of amylopectin by three different limit dextrinase preparations is only about 15–23% of that of amylopectin β-limit dextrin under similar conditions. On dilution of the enzymes there was no change in specificity. The factors controlling the specificity of the enzyme and the possible significance in vivo of the results are discussed.Keywords
