Glucosyltransferase production by Klebsiella sp. K18 and conversion of sucrose to palatinose using immobilized cells Produção de glicosiltransferase por Klebsiella sp. K18 e conversão de sacarose em palatinose utilizando células imobilizadas
The strain Klebsiella sp. K18 produces the enzyme glucosyltransferase and catalyses the conversion of sucrose to palatinose, an alternative sugar that presents low cariogenicity. Response Surface Methodology was successfully employed to determine the optimal concentration of culture medium component...
