Abstract
Production of cyclodextrins (CDs) by immobilized cells of the alkaliphilic Bacillus agaradhaerens LS-3C with integrated product recovery was studied. The microorganism was entrapped in polyvinyl alcohol-cryogel beads and used as a convenient source of immobilized cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase). On activation by incubation in the cultivation medium containing 1% (w/v) starch, the entrapped cells multiplied and secreted CGTase with an activity of 2–3 mg β-cyclodextrin h-1 g-1 beads. The immobilized biocatalyst exhibited maximum activity at pH 9 and 50 °C, and formed cyclodextrins comprising 92–94% β-CD and remaining α-CD. The cyclodextrin product from the immobilized cell bioreactor was continuously recovered by adsorption to... (More)

The cyclodextrin product from the immobilized cell bioreactor was continuously recovered by adsorption to Amberlite XAD-4 in a recycle batch mode. The product adsorption was facilitated at low temperature while hot water was used for elution. (Less)
