Usage

General Description

Levansucrase is an enzyme produced by the bacterium Pseudomonas aurantiaca that catalyzes the hydrolysis of sucrose into fructose and glucose, as well as the transfer of fructose molecules to produce levan, a fructose polymer. This enzyme is important in various industrial applications, notably in the food industry for the production of high-fructose syrups and in the pharmaceutical industry for its potential prebiotic properties. However, the enzymatic reaction is pH and temperature-sensitive, requiring careful optimization for optimal production of levan. Additionally, the enzyme's production and purification process may involve the use of specific chemicals and machinery to ensure high yields and purity.
