Biological Activity

[Description]:

β-Glucosidase is the rate-limiting enzyme of degradation of cellulose. β-Glucosidase is a major group among glycoside hydrolases. β-Glucosidase is involved in the degradation of cellulose in soils and has potential for monitoring biological soil quality[1][2][3].
