Abstract
The ripe carob pod (pericarp) is rich in water-soluble sugars, mainly sucrose (63% on total sugars). Sucrose crystallization from aqueous carob extract is prevented by its reducing sugar content. The selective consumption of these sugars by mixed culture ofRhizopus oligosporus andSaccharomyces rouxii gives a sucrose syrup suitable for several uses e.g. sucrose extraction.
