A METHOD FOR ENZYMATICALLY CONVERTING STARCH INTO CYCLODEXTRINS

A method for enzymatically converting solid and liquefied starch into cyclodextrins using cyclodextrin glycosyl transferases (CGTase) elaborated by thermophilic obligate anaerobic strains belonging to the genus Clostridium. These CGTases are characterized by thermostability and a capability to lique...

Zusammenfassung:A method for enzymatically converting solid and liquefied starch into cyclodextrins using cyclodextrin glycosyl transferases (CGTase) elaborated by thermophilic obligate anaerobic strains belonging to the genus Clostridium. These CGTases are characterized by thermostability and a capability to liquefy starch and/or to convert liquefied starch to cyclodextrins at pH 5.0-5.5 and 60-90 DEG C.
