Worldwide a large number of enzymes, including those with endo-β-glucanase activity are produced by different companies as fodder additives. In Russia, there is no uniform method for endo-β-glucanase activity analysis that causes difficulties in assessing quality of the enzyme preparations. The aim of the study was to develop such uniform method. In this, we optimaized a viscometric determination based on change of the relative viscosity of a substrate mixed with enzyme preparation using a Ostwald capillary viscometer. The following regime has been accepted: the diameter of the capillary is 0.73 mm; the temperature of hydrolysis is 30 °C; the solvent is a acetate buffer (ph 4.7); time of incubation is 5, 10, 15 min in accordance with the kinetics of the enzymatic reaction; and β-glucan (0.4 %) was used as substrate. It carboxymethylcellulose is shown not to be an relevant so far as it gives results incomparable with those obtained with β-glucan due to estimation of the cellulase but not the β-glucanase activity of the enzyme, that does not correspond to the objectives of forage production. The unit used in the developed method is the amount of enzyme which increases the relative substrate flow in 1 min-1 under standard hydrolysis conditions. The measurement of accuracy of the method was carried out according to GOST R ISO 5725-2002 (the state standards). In this, 5 certified samples with different activities were prepared from a commercial sample of β-glucanase (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) with known activity (GLA/g). The activity of the standard was expressed in GLA/g as glucose equivalents corresponding to the amount of enzyme which acts on b-glucan, releasing 1 µmol of sugars in terms of glucose. Certified samples were analyzed under intermediate precision conditions with three factors changing (i.e., operator, matrix, reagent kits). The matrices were mineral fillers, the calcium carbonate and zeolite. To calculate the accuracy of the method the viscosity of certified samples were counted by calibration curves in GLA units. Expanded uncertainty of measurements ranged within 10-22 % for the coverage factor k = 2.
