A novel method for production of concentrated purity maltose using swollen extruded corn starch was investigated. Degree of gelatinization of extruded starch suitable for maltose formation was found to be around 70%. The optimal amiunt of enzyme was 400 unit fungal $\alpha $-amylase per g of starch, and the reaction time was 12 hours. At extruded starch concentration of 300 g/l(w/v), maltose concentration and content were reached up to 220 g/l(w/v) and 77%(w/w), respectively. The maltose forming reaction was also successfully proceeded at high starch concentration of 700 g/l(w/v), however, the conversion yield and content were decreased. By the addition of extruded starch by fed-batch wise, the maltose concentration, purity, and conversion yield could be improved up to 465 g/l(w/v), 70%(w/w), and 0.63, respectively. The investigated maltose production process seems to have many potential advantages over the conventional process utilizing liquefied starch, and the feasibility for industrial application needs to be evaluated.

Maltose and soluble starch were used as secondary sources of carbon for glucoamylase production by Aspergillus awamori in solid state fermentation. During batch cultivation, maltose above 2.5%(w/w) repressed glucoamylase production, but, by adding either 2.5% (w/w) maltose or 1.25% (w/w) soluble starch to fed-batch cultivations, glucoamylase activity was increased by 15% and 170% over standard medium, respectively. The data showed that maltose is a weak inducer of glucoamylase production in solid stat fermentation.

The effects of carbon sources on vancomycin production were investigated using Nocardia orientalis CSVC 3300. Among carbon sources tested, glucose, maltose and fructose were effective for the production of vancomycin. Glucose was favored for growth, but decrease the production of vancomycin at the concentration above 7.5%. In comparison, maltose did not decrease the production of vancomycin up to the concentration of 20%. When the mixture of glucose and maltose was used in the ratio 1:3 to 1:4, the highest production of vancomycin was achieved. When glucose concentration was set at 3.0%, catabolite repression could not be observed up to total sugar concentration of 16.0%. Fermentation was carried out using commercial hydrolyzed starch composed of glucose, maltose, maltotriose and maltotetraose, The initial glucose concentration was set at 3.0% and subsequent oligosaccharide consumption was monitored by checking their supernatant with HPLC. During initial cultivation for 38 hour, glucose was the sole carbon source leading to rapid growth. After cell growth stopped, the maltose and glucose concentrations increased due to degradation of maltotriose and maltotetraose, but glucose level was maintained at around 3.0%. After 70 hour fermentation, maltose slowly converted to glucose, and vancomycin production continued during the period.

Aureobasidium puliulans possesses the capacity for simultaneous formation of fructosyltransferase and glucosyltransferase in various sugar media including sucrose, maltose, glucose and fructose. Among them, sucrose (300 g/1) was the most suitable carbon source for fructosyltransferase production, while fructose (100 g/1) gave the maximal production of glucosyltransferase. There existed a critical concentration for the optimal formation of enzymes in sucrose, glucose and fructose media. By contrast, no effect of maltose concentrations up to 300 g/1 was observed. The specific activity of the glucosyltransferase on maltose medium was highest during the early period of fetmentation, after which a sharp decrease occurred, whereas fructosyltransferase activity on sucrose medium maintained a nearly constant rate for a given culture period. Concomitant production of fructosyltransferase and glucosyltransferase was investigated with different combinations of lower concentrations of sucrose and maltose. Maltose supplementation in sucrose media and sucrose addition to maltose media enhanced the activity ratios of fructosyltransferase to glucosyltransferase as compared to that of non-supplemented media. Several polymers and surfactants were added in an attempt to enhance enzyme production, and supplementation of polyoxyethylene-sorbitan monolaurate (Tween 20) promoted fructosyltransferase production by 20%.

The production of maltose utilizing swollen extrusion starch seems to have many technical advantages, such as, high reaction rate and high yield, production of high purity concentrated maltose, and low energy consumption, over the conventional method utilizing liquefied starch. The characteristics of maltose formation in heterogeneous enzyme reaction system comtaining swollen extrusion starch was investigated using fungal $\alpha $-amylase. The influence of extrusion conditions on structure of extruded starch, such as, degree of gelatinization, water absorption index, and water solubility index was analyzed. The relationship between the structural features and maltose forming reaction was investigated, and the result was analyzed in terms of surface reaction of insoluble extruded swollen starch. The characteristics of maltose formation from swollen sxtrusion starch was compared using endo-type fungal $\alpha $-amylase and exo-type $\beta $anylase, and the structural trasformation of extruded starch was also observed to clarify the reaction mechanism.

A Aureobasidium pullulans 균체를 이용하여 malt-ose로부터 isomalto-oligosaccharides를 생산하였다. 저농도의 maltose를 기질로 이용할 경우에는 가수분해활성이 transglucosylation활성보다 매우 강하여 isomalto-oligosaccharides 합성수율이 매우 낮았으나 400g/ P 이상의 고농도기질에서는 isomalto-oligosaccharides 합성이 유리하였다. isomaltomalto-oligosaccharides 생산의 반응 최적조건은 pH 4.5, 온도 $65^{\circ}C$, 균체농도는 기질 그램당 10unit이었다. 이때 생산된 isomaltooligosa-ccharides의 수율은 최고 48.35%였다. 반응초기에 maltose로부터 panose가 선택적으로 생산되었고, maltose가 더 이상 기질로 이용되지 못하는 반응시점에서 panose를 기질로 이용하여 isomaltotriose가 생산되었다.

올리고당중에서 ${\alpha}$-1, 6-결합을 가진 isomaltose, isomaltotriose, panose 등을 주성분으로 하는 이소말토올리고당의 생산을 위해 A. niger 유래의 transglucosidase　（TG)의 효소학적 특성을 살펴보았다. TG는 maltose를 포도당으로 가수분해하여 panose와 포도당을 생성하였다. panose가 초기기질일 때 TG는 panose를 maltose와 포도당으로 가수분해하였다. ${\alpha}$-1, 6-결합을 가진 isomaltose나 isomaltotriose, isomaltotetraose를 기질로 하였을 때 반응산물의 생성은 ${\alpha}$-1,4-결합을 가진 maltose가 기질일 경우와는 다른 양상을 보였다. 반면 maltotriose를 기질로 한 경우에는 maltose와 유사한 양상을 보였다. TG는 maltotetraose(G4)에서 maltodecaose (G10)가 주성분인 말토올리고당을 기질로 한 경우에도 이소말토올리고당을 생성하였다. 기질인 maltose로부터 TG에 의해 panose가 생성되는 반응은 Michaelos-Menten 식으로 표현되었으며 최대속도, $V_{max}$와 Michaelis 상수, $K_m$은 각각 400 ${\mu}M/min$과 21.4${\mu}M$이었다.

Trehalose is a non-conventional sugar with potent applications in the food, healthcare and biopharma industries. In this study, trehalose was synthesized from maltose using whole-cell Pseudomonas monteilii TBRC 1196 producing trehalose synthase (TreS) as the biocatalyst. The reaction condition was optimized using 1% Triton X-100 permeabilized cells. According to our central composite design (CCD) experiment, the optimal process was achieved at 35℃ and pH 8.0 for 24 h, resulting in the maximum trehalose yield of 51.60 g/g after 12 h using an initial cell loading of 94 g/l. Scale-up production in a lab-scale bioreactor led to the final trehalose concentration of 51.91 g/l with a yield of 51.60 g/g and productivity of 4.37 g/l/h together with 8.24 g/l glucose as a byproduct. A one-pot process integrating trehalose production and byproduct bioremoval showed 53.35% trehalose yield from 107.4 g/l after 15 h by permeabilized P. moteilii cells. The residual maltose and glucose were subsequently removed by Saccharomyces cerevisiae TBRC 12153, resulting in trehalose recovery of 99.23% with 24.85 g/l ethanol obtained as a co-product. The present work provides an integrated alternative process for trehalose production from maltose syrup in bio-industry.

Acarbose, a pseudo-oligosaccharide, is widely used clinically in therapies for non-insulin-dependent diabetes. In the present study, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) was added to selected media in order to investigate its effect on acarbose fermentation by Actinoplanes utahensis ZJB-08196. Acarbose titer was seen to increase markedly when concentrations of SAM were added over a period of time. The effects of glucose and maltose on the production of acarbose were investigated in both batch and fed-batch fermentation. Optimal acarbose production was observed at relatively low glucose levels and high maltose levels. Based on these results, a further fed-batch experiment was designed so as to enhance the production of acarbose. Fed-batch fermentation was carried out at an initial glucose level of 10 g/l and an initial maltose level of 60 g/l. Then, 12 h post inoculation, 100 ${\mu}mol/l$ SAM was added. In addition, 8 g/l of glucose was added every 24 h, and 20 g/l of maltose was added at 96 h. By way of this novel feeding strategy, the maximum titer of acarbose achieved was 6,113 mg/l at 192 h. To our knowledge, the production level of acarbose achieved in this study is the highest ever reported.
