| Bioactivity | β-Glucosidase is the rate-limiting enzyme of degradation of cellulose. β-Glucosidase is a major group among glycoside hydrolases. β-Glucosidase is involved in the degradation of cellulose in soils and has potential for monitoring biological soil quality[1][2][3]. | ||||||

| Appearance | Solid | ||||||
| Transport | Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere. | ||||||
| Storage | Sealed storage, away from moisture
*In solvent : -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture) |
