Vegetable biomass is generated from CO2 and H2O using sunlight as the energy source,
producing O2 as a subproduct. The primary products formed are C6-and C5-sugars that …

Lactose-derived non-digestible oligosaccharides are prominent components of functional
foods. Among them, galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) outstand for being prebiotics whose …

Glycosidases catalyse the synthesis of anomerically pure alkyl glycosides in one step. In
contrast, chemical synthesis of anomerically pure glycosides is circuitous and expensive …

Abstract β-Galactosidase is one of the most important industrial enzymes, that has been
used for many decades in the dairy industry. The main application of β-galactosidase is …

Biocatalysts are inherently labile; therefore their operational stability is of paramount
importance for any bioprocess. The problem of biocatalyst stability has been tackled from …

Abstract β-Galactosidases exhibit both hydrolytic and transgalactosylation activities; the
former has been used traditionally for the production of delactosed milk and dairies, while …

Publisher Summary Oligosaccharides have emerged as functional foods with varied
applications in response to an increasing consumer demand for healthier foods. The …

Alkyl-glycosides and-polyglycosides are environment friendly, non-ionic surfactants with
favourable properties like biodegradability and chemical stability. These are extensively …

Biosurfactants: Research and Development provides a thorough overview of biosurfactant
research and development across a range of settings and industries, highlighting the novel …

Phenylpropanoid glycosides (PPGs) are natural compounds present in several medicinal
plants that have high antioxidant power and diverse biological activities. Because of their …
