Problems solved by technology

When the pure enzyme of cellobiose epimerase is used for the enzymatic production of lactulose, a large amount of boric acid needs to be added to the reaction system. Boric acid is a harmful substance to the human body. The removal of boric acid requires membrane separation technology combined with expensive deboronation resin, which will increase the cost of lactulose industrial production, while bringing food safety hazards

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing lactulose through whole-cell catalysis, and belongs to the field of the food biotechnology. According to the method, recombinant escherichia coli E. coli BL 21 (DE3) for producing cellobiose epimerase is taken as production bacterial strains, lactose is used for replacing isopropyl-beta-D-sulfo-galactoside (IPTG) and taken as an inductive agent for fermental cultivation, and thalluses obtained through centrifugation are subjected to ethyl alcohol permeabilization and vacuum freeze drying to serve as a cell biocatalyst for directly converting the lactose to produce the lactulose. The maximum percent conversion of the lactulose can reach 65.1%, the concentration of the lactulose reaches 390.6 g / L, the production rate of the lactulose reaches 195.3 g / (L*h), and the production quantity of by-product epidepride lactulose is smaller than 2%(w / w). According to the method, microbial cells are directly used for converting the lactose to produce the lactulose, and the method is simple and easy to implement, avoids the loss of enzyme activity in the separation and purification process, greatly reduces the cost of producing the lactulose through an enzymic method and is beneficial for achieving industrialization of lactulose production through the enzymic method early.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for catalyzing the production of lactulose by whole cells, which belongs to the field of food biotechnology. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the population of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease has shown a trend of increasing year by year and younger age, making functional sweeteners with low calories and more functional properties become the focus of research and development and attention of food practitioners. 70% of people in the world have lactose intolerance. After eating lactose, they will cause serious gastrointestinal problems. Every year, millions of tons of lactose in the world are wasted because they cannot be further utilized and cause environmental pollution. How to efficiently utilize lactose has become an urgent problem to be solved. Lactulose obtained through lactose isomerization is becoming a new focus of attention of consumers and food practitioners due to its superior funct...
