Abstract

n-Propylamine and n-butylamine showed an inhibitory effect on cellulase A and cellulase B, while ethanediamine displayed a positive effect on both of these cellulases. Relative filter paper activity and relative CMCase activity of cellulase A and cellulase B measured at 50 °C were increased by 16.0 and 25.2 %, and 18.9 and 13.9 %, respectively, by the appearance of ethanediamine at a certain concentration. Also the addition of ethanediamine maintained the thermal stability of cellulase A and B at 65 °C to some extent and showed a stronger stabilizing effect on cellulase A than cellulase B. Third, the addition of ethanediamine within a certain concentration range enhanced the bio-polishing effect of cotton fabric enzymatic treatment at 50 °C to some extent, obtaining a close bio-polishing effect of cotton fabrics treated at 50 °C; the addition of ethanediamine saved some of the dose of cellulase A and B. Last but not least, the appearance of ethanediamine broadened the operating temperature of cellulase A to 65 °C, and it had a less positive effect on cellulase B at 65 °C.
