Large scale enzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides and a novel purification process

Abstract

Herein we report the practical chemo enzymatic synthesis of trisaccharide and derivatives of iGb3 and Gb3, and a novel purification process using immobilized yeast to remove the monosaccharide from the reaction mixture. High purity oligosaccharide compounds were achieved in large scale. This study represents a facile enzymatic synthesis of and novel purification process of oligosaccharide.
