The extraction method for beta-glucosidase from green vanilla beans has been studied. The effect of storage of green beans and protein extracts on beta-glucosidase and peroxidase activity was investigated: the best method, resulting in the highest enzyme activities, particularly for glucosidase, was through extraction of very fresh green beans in the presence of BisTris propane buffer at pH 8. The best method for storage of the extracts was at -80 degrees C after addition of 15% glycerol, when over 90% of initial activity was still present. Peroxidase activity did not change in frozen beans or in frozen extracts.
