摘要:
The sweetner prepared by adding palatinose to sucrose is a low-cariogenic since palatinose is not only low cariogenic in itself, but also inhibits the formation of insoluble glucan from sucrose in an oral cavity.Since the sweetner is almost same as sucrose in quality of sweetness, dissolvability in a mouth, palatability, etc., and further is low-cariogenic when it is used in foods, it is suitable as sweetner. In addition, since the sweetner is usually crystalline or powdery, it is easy to handle.
摘要:
Palatinose is produced from sucrose with an immobilized bacteria containing alpha-glucosyl transferase. The bacteria is immobilized by entrapping cells of the bacteria in calcium alginate gel granules and treating the granules with polyethyleneimine and glutaraldehyde. Palatinose is efficiently produced by packing the bacteria-containing granules in a column and passing a sucrose solution through the column at high velocity.
