  1. Phytase an enzyme produced by Aspergillus niger can be adsorbed on microcrystalline cellulose powder (MCCP). The adsorption follows a Langmuir isotherm and the maximum concentration of the protein that can be obtained on the adsorbent is 70 mg cm–3. At a concentration of 50mgl–1 of protein in the solution the concentration of protein on the adsorbent reaches 35 mg cm–3. It is desired to recover 90% of the addition of MCCP to the solution. The concentration of the protein adsorbed on the solid at equilibrium will be
    1. 21.4 mg cm–3
    2. 214 mg cm–3
    3. 2.14 mg cm–3
    4. None of these
    5. NA
