Abstract
An Aspergillus sp., isolated from a rubbish dump, produced 10.6 IU ml( -1) xylanase activity. Two xylanases were recognized and each was puri fied to homogeneity by two-stage chromatography on DEAE- and CM-Sephar ose. Xylanase I had a pi of 7.2 and an M(r) of 26 kDa whereas xylanase II had a pi of 4.7 and an M(r) of 21 kDa. At 50 degrees C, xylanase I was stable for 2.5 h but xylanase II was only stable for I h.
