    Abstract

    The limit dextrinases from ungerminated oats and rice have been purified, and their substrate specificity compared with a bacterial isoamylase preparation. Both cereal enzymes could hydrolyse (1?6)-a-D-glucosidic linkages in oligosaccharide a-dextrins, pullulan, amylopectin, and the ß-limit dextrins of amylopectin and glycogen. However, under comparable conditions, they were unable to attack glycogens. © 1975.
