In ammonium sulfate ppt, in order to check protein's activity, the precipitated pellet is not giving any zone of inhibition. why?

I have checked for activity with 30%, 60%, 80% precipitated pellet suspened in buffer, it didn't show any zone, whereas the treated supernatant such as 30%, 60%, 80% keep on showing zone against...

In the first step of protein purificatio,does the protein degrades?the crude protein showed zone of inhibition but the 80%precipitated protein didn't?

why it is not showing zone? for how long the protein remain active after , precipitation, if kept in buffer?
