Immobilization of escherichia coli producing β-cyclodextrin glucanotransferase on hollow fiber membrane for β-cyclodextrin production

β-cyclodextrin is a cyclic oligosaccharide that has been in high demand in various industries due to its numerous applications. It is produced from starch via the enzymatic conversion of β-cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (β-CGTase). While researchers have discovered a method to produce a high concen...
