Bacillus cereus B-amylase was purified by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, CM Sephadex C-50 ion exchange chromatography and CM Sephadex C-50 ion exchange rechromatography. The purified enzyme showed 871unit/㎎ of specific activity. The purified enzyme was identified as homogenious by disc PAGE, SDS-PAGE and analysis of reaction product. The purified enzyme showed optimum pH 7.0. optimum temperature 50℃, and was stable at 0∼50℃ and at pH range of 6∼10.
