PRODUCTION OF CYCLODEXTRIN FROM GRANULAR MODIFIED STARCHES

摘要

A process is described for the production of cyclodextrin which comprises: providing a water solution of a gelatinized granular modified starch; subjecting said solution to the action of cyclodextrin transglycosylase enzyme in the presence of a chemical selected from the group consisting of chemicals which will form a complex with cyclodextrin and mixtures thereof; and recovering a product containing cyclodextrin.
