Insight into the Hydrolytic Selectivity of β-Glucosidase to Enhance the Contents of Desired Active Phytochemicals in Medicinal Plants

<div>HPLC profiles for the bioconversion of four herbal extracts using recombinant β-glucosidase from Lactobacillus anti (rBGLa): Glycyrrhizae Radix at (a) 280 and (b) 254 nm, (c) Gardeniae Fructus at 240 nm, (d) Scutellariae Radix at 280 nm, and (e) Citri Pericarpium at 280 nm. Herbal extracts (20 mg/mL) were reacted with 100 μg/mL rBGLa in 25 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) at 45°C and the samples were withdrawn at 0 and 24 h after the start of the reactions.</div>
