Description Different commercial enzymes, used individually or in
combination, released upto 96% starch from whole cassava
chips with pectinase I and cellulase combination. The
enzymic action on macerating chips and disintegrating root
cells was dependent on size of chips, presence of peel,
temperature, time, agitation and type as well as
concentration of enzymes. Significantly higher starch
recovery and elimination of cost-intensive mechanical
pulverization indicate potential of the enzymic technique.
