Cellulase unit

A cellulase unit (CU) is a unit of measurement for the enzyme cellulase. One cellulase unit is that activity that will produce a relative fluidity change of one in 5 minutes in a defined carboxymethylcellulose substrate under the conditions of an assay (50 deg Celsius, pH 4.5).[1] Cellulases enzymatically split cellulose[2] into a variety of hexoses, this is called hydrolysis.
