Abstract
We describe a multi-step chromatographic strategy required to isolate three new endo-β-glucanases (denoted EG V, EG VI, and EG VII) with activity against cereal mixed-linkage β-glucans from the thermophilic fungus Talaromyces emersonii. This work also illustrates the challenges frequently involved...
