Three methods of quantifying chitinase activity were compared. The activities of crude chitinases of 10 bacterial isolates from different environments were estimated in terms of (1) the release of p-nitrophenol from the chromogenic chito-oligosaccharide analogues, p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-N,N'-diacetylchitobiose, p-nitrophenyl-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamine and p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-N,N',N"-triacetylchitotriose, (2)

Transchitooligosylation from (GlcNAc)5 to the 4-position of PNP-GlcNAc was efficiently induced through lysozyme catalysis in an aqueous solution containing methanol with a high concentration. Use of the aqueous methanol system in this reaction not only guaranteed solubility of PNP-GlcNAc substrate
