The invention discloses a method for continuously synthesizing oligo-isomalto-oligosaccharides. An
aldehyde-modified
chitosan magnetic carrier is used to further immobilize recombinant
Pichia pastorisdisplaying alpha-
glucosidase on the surface.
Aldehyde groups modifying the surface of the carrier are covalently bound to
glycoprotein on the surface of the recombinant
Pichia pastoris, and at the same time, through the
adsorption effect of
chitosan on the recombinant
Pichia pastoris, the effect of immobilizing a
Pichia pastoris cell catalyst can be achieved. By utilizing the superparamagnetic properties of the carrier, immobilized mycelia and a reaction substrate can be rapidly separated in a
magnetic field, and the recycling efficiency of the
cell catalyst is improved. The immobilized mycelia have good
thermal stability and good recyclability. At the same time, the invention also relates to addition of the immobilized recombinant
Pichia pastoris into a
fixed bed for direct continuous catalytic synthesis of IMOs, and better production efficiency of the IMOs can be achieved. The immobilization method is simple and effective, and has good
operability, the reuse of the mycelia is easy to realize, and the production cost of the IMOs can be reduced.
