ENZYMES are the specific fibers which are carrying out function of biological catalysts.

• Ferments differ from аnorganic accelerators the specific properties:
• 1. Rate of an enzyme catalysis much more above than аnorganic accelerators.
• 2. Ferments possess high specificity. Distinguish following kinds of specificity of ferments:
• Absolute specificity;
• Relative specificity;
• Stereochemical specificity.
• 3. Ferments catalyze chemical reaction in soft conditions: at usual pressure, low temperature.
• 4. Ferments are accelerators with adjustable activity.
• 5. Rate of an enzymatic reaction in direct ratio to quantity of ferment.
