Heterosidases are enzymes capable of releasing bioactive moleculesused in cosmetics,nutrition, medicine and in manyotherfields.For thiswork, the presence of glycosidases withheterosidaseactivitiesweredetectedin the seed of the kernels of six cultivars of mangoes (Mangiferaindica L) cultivatedin the region of DALOA (Cote dIvoire) in orderto select new enzymatic sources to original activities. To do this, the crudeenzymaticextractsweretakenfrom the almonds of kernels of the LOCAL, KENT, CAMEROUN, TARDIVE, GREFFE and SUCETTE cultivars of mangoes. Specificactivitiesweredeterminedfromtheseextractsand thencompared. The heterosidaseactivitiestestedwerethose of the β-glucosidase, β-galactosidase, β-fucosidaseand phosphatase activities. All theseactivitieshave been present in thesecultivars.However, thehighestspecificactivitieswerethose of the LOCAL cultivarfollowed in general by those of the GREFFE cultivar. It thereforeemergedfromthisstudythattheseseeds have enzymaticequipment capable of degradingheterosides. Thesedifferent glycosidases couldconstitute important enzymatictools for the valorization of food and non-foodbiomolecules of agricultural rawmaterials and for the development of industry.   |
