Projectomschrijving
The project aims to establish the Cost-efficient synthesis of health-promoting glycobioses using classical table sugar (sucrose) as substrate and enzymes as green biocatalysts. After synthesis of various new disaccharides (analogues), they will be studied in detail to determine their characteristics in food applications. The most promising candidates will then be produced at large-scale to enable their taste and texture profiling.
