GH57 amylopullulanase from Desulfurococcus amylolyticus JCM 9188 can make highly branched cyclodextrin via its transglycosylation activity.
2018
Abstract Desulfurococcus amylolyticus is an anaerobic and hyperthermophilic crenarchaeon that can use various carbohydrates as energy sources. We found a gene encoding a glycoside hydrolase family 57 amylolytic enzymes (DApu) in a putative carbohydrate utilization gene cluster in the genome of D. amylolyticus . This gene has an open reading frame of 1,878 bp and consists of 626 amino acids with a molecular mass of 71 kDa. Recombinant DApu (rDApu) completely hydrolyzed pullulan to maltotriose by attacking α-1,6-glycosidic linkages, and was able to produce glucose and maltose from soluble starch and amylopectin. Although rDApu showed no activity toward α-cyclodextrin (CD) and β-CD, maltooctao…
Modelling of Starch Gelatinisation and Liquefaction with the Enzyme Liquozyme
2011
In this paper the influence of the enzyme Liquozyme Supra concentration (0.4-1.2 kg/t dry substance DS) and gelatinisation time (3-11 min.) on the liquefied starch quality is investigated. The composition in sugars with different Degrees of Polymerisation (DP) as DP1 (glucose), DP2 (maltose), DP3 (maltotriose), DP4 (maltotetrose) and oligosaccharides with DP≥5 is analysed by using HPLC with RI detector. The products obtained have different DP, the main components being oligosaccharides with DP≥5, followed by small amount of DP3+DP4 and much smaller concentrations of DP1; no DP2 is produced by this enzyme. Two quality criteria: the percent of oligosaccharides with DP≥5 and the percent of DP1…
Comparative Analysis of Quality Criteria for the Control of Liquefaction at the Obtaining of Starch-Based Hydrolysates
2012
Starch hydrolysates production converts starch to different kinds of products using enzymes in two steps, liquefaction and saccharification. This study investigated three types of analysis methods for the assessing and characterization of the liquefaction process: a rheological method (to measure yield stress), a chemical method (for the determination of Dextrose Equivalent DE) and a chromatographic method (HPLC to obtain the Degrees of Polymerization DPs). Potato starch with 13.5% dry substance was liquefied with the enzyme Liquozyme Supra for two hours in optimal conditions of pH and temperature. A comparative analysis between the methods to describe the liquefaction process was realise…
Potential application of yeasts from Ecuadorian chichas in controlled beer and chicha production
2021
The potential of yeasts isolated from traditional chichas as starter cultures, either for controlled production of the native beverage or for industrial beer production, has been investigated. Three S. cerevisiae strains and one T. delbrueckii strain isolated from four different Ecuadorian chichas were compared to ale and lager beer strains with respect to fermentation performance, sugar utilisation, phenolic off-flavour production, flocculation and growth at low temperature. Fermentations were performed in 15 °P all-malt wort and in a model chicha substrate at 12 °C and 20 °C. Tall-tube fermentations (1.5 L) were also performed with both substrates to assess yeast performance and beer qual…
An infrared spectroscopic tool for process monitoring: sugar contents during the production of a depilatory formulation.
2012
Abstract A fast, reliable and economical methodology has been developed to control the production process of sugar-based depilatories. The method is based on the use of attenuated total reflectance—Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy in combination with multivariate data analysis. A very simple sample preparation process involving the dissolution of samples in water was applied. Employing a multivariate calibration model established from data of 15 well characterized samples, prediction errors equal or below 3.04 mg mL−1 for the quantitative determination of fructose, glucose, sucrose, maltose and maltotriose were obtained. Results found in this preliminary study indicate a g…
Comparison of Water Adsorption Characteristics of Oligo and Polysaccharides of α-Glucose Studied by Near Infrared Spectroscopy
2014
The adsorption properties of water molecules on oligo and polysaccharides are attributed to the OH groups of the glucose rings in the molecules. The water molecules are adsorbed onto OH groups by hydrogen bond formation. Near infrared spectroscopic and gravimetric techniques were used in analysing the adsorption characteristics of malto-oligosaccharides and some polysaccharides. Near infrared spectra of the dry oligo and polysaccharides were acquired during the adsorption of water molecules at a relative humidity of 50-55%. The amounts of water adsorbed by the samples were also recorded by an analytical balance. Second derivative techniques were used in decomposing the OH combination freque…
Water Adsorption Characteristics of Acyclic Oligosaccharides of α-Gluose Studied by Near Infrared Spectroscopy
2013
The adsorption properties of water molecules on maltooligosaccharides are attributed to the OH groups of the glucose rings in maltooligosaccharides. The water molecules are adsorbed onto OH groups by hydrogen bond formation. Near infrared spectroscopic and gravimetric techniques were used in analysing the adsorption characteristics of maltooligosaccharides. Near infrared spectra of the dry maltooligosaccharides were acquired during the adsorption of wa- ter molecules at a relative humidity of 50%. The amounts of water adsorbed by the samples were also recorded by an ana- lytical balance. Second derivative techniques were used in decomposing the OH combination frequency of the adsorbed water…
Das durch das enzym amylomaltase eingestellte gleichgewicht oligomerer amylosen
1966
In der Reihe Glucose G, Maltose G2, Maltotriose G3 usw. stellt Amylomaltase die Gleichgewichte: 2 G2 = G3 + G (K1), G3 + G2 = G4 + G (K2) usw. ein. Die Gleichgewichtsgemische werden chromatographisch analysiert und daraus die Gleichgewichtskonstanten K1, K2 usw. berechnet. Diese steigen vom Wert K1 = 0,9 ab bis zu einem Grenzwert von etwa 1,05 asymptotisch an. Enthalpie, Entropie und freie Enthalpie liegen, auser fur den ersten Reaktionsschritt (K1), wie zu erwarten nahe bei 0. Das aus Escherichia coli (Stamm ML aus dem Institut Pasteur) isolierte Enzym Amylomaltase hat ein Molekulargewicht von etwa 130 000 und eine darauf bezogen Wechselahle von etwa 11 000 Mol Maltose pro Min. In the seri…
