摘要:
A process for the direct conversion of granular starch to levulose comprising mixing a granular starch with water, bacterial alpha-amylase, glucoamylase and a glucose isomerase derived from Streptomyces albus at a temperature of from about 40.degree. to about 70.degree. C. and a pH of from about 5.0 to about 7.0 and maintaining the starch in essentially granular form until a soluble hydrolysate containing levulose is produced, wherein any residual insoluble starch is in essentially granular, ungelatinized form.

THIS INVENTION RELATES TO PRODUCING A NEW AMYLASE BY CULTIVATING A STRAIN OF THE PARTICULAR SEVEN SPECIES OF STREPTOMYCES; STREPTOMUCES ALUBUS, STREPTOMYCES AUREOFACIENS, STREPTOMYCES HYDROSCOPICUS, STREPTOMYCES HYDROSCOPCUS VAR. ANGUSTOMYCETICUS, STREPTOMYCES VIRIDOCHROMOGENES, STREPTOMYCES FLAVUS AND STREPTOMYCES TOSAENSIS. THESE NEW AMYLASES PRODUCED BY THE ABOVE PARTICULAR SPECIES, RESPECTIVELY HAVE SOME ENZYMATIC ACTIVITIES AND CHARACTERISTICS WHICH ARE MUCH MORE USEFUL AND ADVANTAGEOUS IN PRODUCING A HIGHER YEILD OF MALTOSE FROM STARCH AND AMYLOSE, AS COMPARED TO THE USE OF THE KNOWN AMYLASES. THE STARCH HYDROLYZATE WHICH IS OBTAINED BY REACTING THE NEW AMYLASE WITH STARCH IN AQUEOUS DISPERSION CONTAINS A PREDOMINANT PROTORTION OF MALTOSE AND IS USEFUL AS A NATURAL SWEETENING MATERIAL, FURTHER, THIS STARCH HYDROLYZATE MAINLY COMPOSED OF MALTOSE IS CONVERTED INTO A MIXTURE OF SUGAR ALCOHOLS MAINLY COMPOSED OF MALTITOL BY HYDROGENATING IN THE PRESENCE OF A NICKEL CATALYST.

摘要:
Novel peptide B-52653 having the formula: ##STR1## which is produced by cultivating a microorganism belonging to the genus Streptomyces and being capable of producing B-52653 in a culture medium, whereby B-52653 is elaborated and accumulated in the cultured broth and is recovered.B-52653 is useful as a germicide or disinfectant, and a possibility of the present substance as an antifibrotic agent is suggested.
摘要:
A method for producing a substance highly containing high content of maltose therein, by saccharifying a liquefied starch with amylase produced by streptomyces at the same time with or after treatment with .beta.-amylase.

ANTIBIOTICS A204I AND A204II ARE CO-PRODUCED BY CULTURING STREPTOMYCES ALBUS NRRL 3384 IN AN AQUEOUS, NUTRIENT CULTURE MEDIUM AND ARE ISOLATED AS ANTIBIOTIC A204 MIXTURE VIA ETHYL ACETATE EXTRACTION OF FILTERED BROTH AND MYCELIUM FOLLOWED BY PURIFICATION OVER ACTIVATED CARBON. CHROMATOGRAPHY OF A204 MIXTURE AFFORDS SEPARATION OF A204I AND A204II AS INDIVIDUAL ANTIBIOTICS HAVING ANTICOCCIDIAL, INSECTICIDAL, ANTI-PPLO AS WELL AS ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY.
