A crude extract from Aureobasidium had β-glucosidase activity, hydrolysing cello-biose, methyl-β-D-glucoside, lactose, carboxymethylcellulose, avicel, o-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucoside and p-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucoside, favourable properties such as high pH thermal stabilities. The optimum temperature of the cello-biase activity were 4 80°C, respectively. cellobiase was stable at 3–7 to 7.8 for least 3 h, retained 34 78% its original 1.5 9, Cellobiase 80°C 15 min, 81% 85°C.
