摘要:
Tagatose is manufactured by hydrolyzing lactose to galactose and glucose and isomerizing galactose to tagatose and chromatographic separation and recycling any unconverted compounds. Thereby high yields of pure tagatose are obtained.
摘要:
A novel L-arabinose isomerase active enzyme and its corresponding gene, derived from a thermophilic source are provided. The enzyme is suitable for the production of D-tagatose, a useful low-calorie sweetener. The enzyme may be obtained from a Thermoanaerobacter species such as Thermoanaerobacter mathranii.
