Unit Definition

One USP Unit of amylase activity is contained in the amount of pancreatin that decomposes starch at an initial rate such that 0.16 µEq of glycosidic linkage is hydrolyzed per minute under the conditions of the Assay for amylase activity. One USP Unit of protease activity is contained in the amount of pancreatin that under the conditions of the Assay for protease activity hydrolyzes casein at an initial rate such that there is liberated per minute an amount of peptides not precipitated by trichloroacetic acid that gives the same absorbance at 280 nm as 15 nmol of tyrosine.

Sodium caseinate (NaCas) was hydrolyzed by papain, pancreatin and trypsin from 10 min to 24h, and the hydrolysates were partially characterized for several important properties. At the studied conditions, papain and trypsin were more effective in hydrolyzing NaCas than pancreatin.
