The properties of dough or bread can be improved by the addition of a carbohydrate oxidase which can oxidize the reducing end of an oligosaccharide more efficiently than the corresponding monosaccharide, e.g., preferentially oxidizing maltodextrins or cellodextrins over glucose. A novel carbohydrate oxidase having the capability to oxidize maltodextrins and cellodextrins more efficiently than glucose may be obtained from a strain of Microdochium, particularlyThe amino acid sequence of the novel carbohydrate oxidase has very low homology (&#x3c;20% identity) with known amino acid sequences.

Carbohydrate oxidase and use thereof in baking

The properties of dough or bread can be improved by the addition of a carbohydrate oxidase which can oxidize the reducing end of an oligosaccharide more efficiently than the corresponding monosaccharide, e.g., preferentially oxidizing maltodextrins or cellodextrins over glucose. A novel carbohydrate oxidase having the capability to oxidize maltodextrins and cellodextrins more efficiently than glucose may be obtained from a strain of, particularly. The amino acid sequence of the novel carbohydrate oxidase has very low homology (&#x3c;20% identity) with known amino acid sequences.

The present invention relates to methods of producing wool or animal hair material with improved properties such as shrink-proofed (anti-felting tendency), increased whiteness, improved dyeability, increased softness and/or reduced pilling tendency, the method comprising the steps of treating wool, wool fibers or animal hair material in a process selected from the group consisting of plasma treatment processes and the Delhey process, and subjecting the wool or animal hair material to a treatment with a proteolytic enzyme (a protease), preferably a serine protease, more preferably a subtilisin, in an amount effective for improving the properties.

Method for enzymatic treatment of wool

The properties of dough or bread can be improved by the addition of a carbohydrate oxidase which can oxidize the reducing end of an oligosaccharide more efficiently than the corresponding monosaccharide, e.g., preferentially oxidizing maltodextrins or cellodextrins over glucose. A novel carbohydrate oxidase having the capability to oxidize maltodextrins and cellodextrins more efficiently than glucose may be obtained from a strain of Microdochium, particularly M. nivale. The amino acid sequence of the novel carbohydrate oxidase has very low homology (&lt;20% identity) with known amino acid sequences.

The present invention relates to a method for reducing the content of phosphorous containing components in an edible oil comprising a high amount of non-hydratable phosphorus content, wherein said method comprises use of a phospholipase. Further the present invention relates to an enzyme with phospholipase activity, a cloned DNA sequence encoding the enzyme with phospholipase activity, a method of producing the enzyme, and the use of said enzyme for a number of industrial applications.
