Enzymatic production of maltohexaose-rich compositions

Abstract

Malto-oligosaccharide compositions which contain up to about 40% maltohexaose by weight are produced from starchy substrates and maltodextrins by a simple, one-step hydrolysis with certain thermostable .alpha.-amylase from Bacillus stearothermophilus. This process is particularly useful in the production of novel compositions with properties that will lead to new applications in both food and nonfood industries.
