Extracellular Fungal Hydrolytic Enzyme Activity
2005Plant biomass is largely composed of an intricate assembly of polymeric carbohydrates and lignin. Efficient degradation by fungi and other microorganisms requires a suite of extracellular enzymes capable of degrading the polymeric cell wall fractions into monomers, which can then be assimilated by microbes.

Extracellular Enzyme Activity in Eutrophic and Polyhumic Lakes
1991For many years, the synthesis, secretion, and activity of extracellular enzymes of different organisms have been intensively studied by workers in many different disciplines, such as applied microbiology, biotechnology, biochemistry, and medicine (Pollock, 1962; Priest, 1977; 1984; Kreutzberg et al., 1986; Chaloupka and Krumphanzl, 1987).

Problems with toluene and the determination of extracellular enzyme activity in soils
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 1979Abstract Six of 7 fungi imperfecti, 7 of 13 basidiomycetes, and 6 of 14 bacteria tested were able to grow with 0.1 or 0.05% toluene as a sole source of carbon indicating an invalid use of toluene as a biostatic agent for analysis of extracellular enzymes in soil.

Avirulence and Reduced Extracellular Enzyme Activity in Geotrichum candidum
Botanical Gazette, 1983Mutagenized avirulent mutants (AV) of Geotrichum candidum and mutants of reduced virulence had lower polygalacturonase (PG), cellulase (Cx), and phosphatidase (PT) activity values than the virulent wild-type strain (G.c. met-1). Some of the AV mutants yielded reduced virulence revertants after mutagenesis. These revertants showed a substantial increase

Extracellular enzyme activities and nutrient availability during artificial groundwater recharge
Water Research, 2009Natural organic matter (NOM) removal is the main objective of artificial groundwater recharge (AGR) for drinking water production and biodegradation plays a substantial role in this process. This study focused on the biodegradation of NOM and nutrient availability for microorganisms in AGR by the determination of extracellular enzyme activities (EEAs ...

Postfire extracellular enzyme activity in a temperate montane forest
Soil Science Society of America JournalAbstract Wildfire is a disturbance expected to increase in frequency and severity, changes that may impact carbon (C) dynamics in the soil ecosystem. Fire changes the types of C sources available to soil microbes, increasing pyrogenic C and coarse downed wood, and if there is substantial tree mortality, decreasing C from root exudates
