Production Of Fructosyltransferase And Fructooligosaccharides By Penicillium Simplicissimum

Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) produced from natural resources as an alternative sweetener has received greater attention and sucrose is the common carbon source for its production. To minimize the production cost, feasibility of using low cost substrates derived from local agricultural resources such...
