Various substrates for the determination of malt endo‐β‐glucanase activity have been tested in conjunction with the β‐glucanase procedure advocated by Bourne and Pierce. It is recommended that one universal standard substrate should be used and that each determination should be measured against a standard check malt. Furthermore, great care must be exercised in the dissolution of the substrate to obtain consistent results.
