Evaluation of Invertase and Amylase Activities of Latic Acid Bacteria Isolated from ‘Pupuru’ (An Indigenous African Fermented Cassava Staple Food)

B. C. Akin-Osanaiye, B. T. Azeez & I. W. Olobayotan · Asian Journal of Research in Biochemistry · 2019

Lactic acid bacteria produce lactic acid as the major end product during sugar fermentation. This study was carried out to isolate lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from pupuru; a staple cassava food. The result of the bacterial count indicated that the count ranges from 3.1 × 104 CFU/g...
