abstract：:An extracellular esterase, EstK, was purified from the psychrotrophic bacterium Pseudomonas mandelii grown at 25°C. Prior to harvest, cells were treated with 0.2 M MgCl2 to precipitate lipopolysaccharides in the outer membranes, which otherwise form aggregates with the secreted enzymes. EstK was purified to homogeneit...
