Description

Levansucrase From Pseudomonasaurantiaca* CAS NO 9030-17-5 is a specialized enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of levan, a high-value fructan polymer, from sucrose. This product matters for its high specificity and efficiency in producing levan with controlled molecular weight, a biopolymer with significant functional properties. It is needed by manufacturers in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries for applications ranging from prebiotic ingredients and drug delivery systems to bio-thickeners and stabilizers.

Application

• Prebiotic & Dietary Fiber Production: Enzymatic synthesis of levan for use as a functional food ingredient to promote gut health.
• Pharmaceutical Excipients: Production of levan for controlled drug release systems, wound healing formulations, and as an immunomodulator.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Manufacture of bio-based levan for use as a natural moisturizer, film-forming agent, and texture enhancer in creams and lotions.
• Biomaterial Research: Used in R&D for developing novel biodegradable films, hydrogels, and scaffolds for tissue engineering.
• Industrial Biotechnology: Catalyst in the enzymatic conversion of sucrose-based feedstocks into value-added biopolymers.
• Analytical & Diagnostic Reagents: Serves as a specific enzyme in biochemical assays and research kits for carbohydrate analysis.

Quality Control

Our Levansucrase is produced and tested under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analysis to ensure high activity, purity, and consistency. Specifications typically include assessment of enzymatic activity (U/mg), protein content, and absence of specific microbial contaminants. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation. For short-term use, aliquots may be stored at 2-8°C.
