The uptakes of endoglucanase and endoxylanase by soybean were studied by measuring the fluorescent intensity of a carboxyfluorescein. The disappearance rates of these enzymes from solution were compared with predictions from different models. The Freundlich model provided the best fit for our data. Enzyme concentration in the solution did not change significantly after 11 d, and therefore it was assumed that equilibrium was reached. Average mass transfer coefficient was calculated for both endoglucanase and endoxylanase from the plot of the rate of uptake against (Cl av −Cl*) and a value of 4×10−5 ms−1 was obtained. K value was used to calculate the effective diffusivities of the two enzymes assuming a slice. It is found that K was asymptotic with long residence times, and a value of 4.8×10−10 m2 s−1 was obtained.
