additional information | beta-galactosidase from Aspergillus sp. displays beta-glucosidase activity, which is responsible for its ability to transform major ginsenoside Rb1 to rare ginsenoside F2 and to ginsenoside Rg3 via ginsenoside Rd. Ginsenoside Rg3 can be selectively hydrolyzed and only Rh2 is obtained with this beta-galactosidase. Before hydrolysis, an Rg3 inclusion complex is prepared with hydroxypropyl-b-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD) to improve the aqueous solubility. The solubility of Rg3 increases 74.6fold, and the phase solubility curve displays a typical AL-type, which indicates the formation of a 1:1 inclusion complex. Using an enzyme loading of 500 U/g Rg3, the highest Rg3 conversion of 90.6% and Rh2 yield of 88.5% are obtained after 24 h at 60°C. Ginsenoside F2 is not converted into ginsenoside Rh2 and this is not converted into the protopanaxadiol aglycone | Aspergillus sp. | ? | - |
