Abstract
The partially-purified, thermally-stable trehalase from conidia of Hum icola grisea was highly specific for trehalose and was free of potenti ally interfering activities. The enzyme was fully stable when stored i n solution at -15-degrees-C for at least 6 months. This preparation co uld be used to quantify trehalose from 0.05 to 1.25 mumol/ml either in carbohydrate mixtures or in complex biological materials.
