Preparation of high fructose syrups from sucrose

摘要

This invention relates generally to (1) processes for the production and isolation of a novel fructosyl transferase enzyme from the fermentation broth of Pullularia pullulans, (2) enzymatic transfructosylation of sucrose to produce a novel fructose-polymer containing substrate, and (3) production of fructose syrups containing greater than 55% fructose from said novel substrate.
