Production Of Fructosyltranferase By Penicillium Simplicissimum In Submerged Culture

Fructosyltransferase (FTase) is an enzyme responsible for the production of fructooligosaccharides (FOS). FOS is an important ingredient in the cosmetic, agrochemical, pharmaceutical and food industries. Recent increase in the demand of FOS has led to new search of FTase producing microorganism and...
