“…Dextransucrase from L. mesenteroides Table I summarizes the recent literature on B-512F dextransucrase purification, and also older literature where notably high specific activities or low carbohydrate contents were obtained. Because glucansucrase purification has been reviewed in four doctoral dissertations [63,64,345,360] and three master's theses [171,181,223] from Iowa State University during the period 1977-1983, with particular emphasis on B-512F dextransucrase by Walseth [345] and by Kaboli [171], only the recent literature will be described in detail here. Numerical values for specific activity and carbohydrate content are given in Table I rather than in the text.…”
