The residues of these amino acids compose a triad of catalyse in the specific-order (serine – aspartic acid histidine) in the chain of polypeptide. Consequently, the most of lipases and esterases resemble serine-proteases and lipases in hydrolytic mechanism. Esterases (EC 3.1.1.1), as well as lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) are the versatile classes of biocatalysts. Due to their region-, enatio-selectivity and high specificity. Esterases are those that can catalyze the hydrolysis of short-acyl-chain-lengthed triglycerides less than 10, whereas, lipases are catalysts that can hydrolyze long-acyl-chain-lengthed triglycerides more than 10. Lipases applications can widely produce from a bacterial and fungal production.

In the present study, Prosopis africana seed was hydrolysed using two distinct methods. In a separate study, the hydrolysates were found to be good sources of peptone for microbial cultures. The proximate analyses of contents of hydrolysates obtained from enzyme-hydrolysed or acid-hydrolysed seeds were determined. The seeds obtained from a local market were thoroughly cleaned and boiled until the seed coats were softened. The softened seed coats were manually removed to reveal the cotyledons, which were washed, dried and powdered. The powdered cotyledon was subjected to hydrolysis using the enzyme, papain, or hydrochloric acid. Proximate analysis of the hydrolysates was determined using standard methods. The results revealed that papain-hydrolysed seeds (PHP) and acidhydrolysed seeds (AHP) had moisture contents of 32.7 % and 83.3 %, respectively whereas the ash values were 3.05% and 0.15 %. Protein contents of PHP and AHP were 39.69 % and 12.78 % respectively. Crude fibre compositions were 2.01 % in PHP while AHP showed no presence of fibre.
