Abstract
The conversion of soluble starch to cyclomaltohexaose (alpha-CD), cycl omaltoheptaose (beta-CD), cyclomaltooctaose (gamma-CD) and cyclomalton onaose (delta-CD) by cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases (E.C. 2.4.1.19) from Bacillus spp. and bacterial isolates was studied. The results sh ow that delta-CD was formed by all the enzymes investigated in the ran ge of 5%-11.5% of the total amount of alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta -CD produced.
