Assessment of different systems for the production of aldonic acids and sorbitol by calcium alginate-immobilized Zymomonas mobilis cells

Equimolar amounts of lactobionic acid and sorbitol may be obtained in a reaction catalyzed by the enzymes glucose–fructose oxidoreductase and glucono-δ-lactonase, which are found in the periplasm of Zymomonas mobilis . These reactions are generally conducted using immobilized bacterial cells, and th...
