Abstract
The application of P. aculeatum dextranases in Abu Kerkas sugarcane juice and final evaporate syrup indicated that dextranase activities in final evaporate syrup temperature (50 °C, °Brix 57.3) were dramatically reduced after 30-50 °Brix. Overall, juice applications were more efficient and economical than adding then to evaporate syrup. However, immobilized dextranase can be applied to syrup at levels as low as 10 ppm/solids to remove up to 70.65 % dextran which is useful to consider when several dextran problems occur. Heating juice to 55 °C in the presence of all dextranases, dramatically removed more dextran from a juice than at the current ambient temperature of application 32 °C and was much more economical. Free dextranase removed 47.89 % dextran after 5 min and at 55 °C compared to 8.03 % at 32 °C. While, 56.26 % of dextran was removed after 5 min, at 55 °C compared to 9.77 % at 32 °C for the immobilized dextranase. Storage effect of immobilized dextranase at 25 30 °C proved that the activity had decreased slightly from 97518.32 to 79982.91 units, while storage under 4 °C also decreased the activity from 81592.37 to 75297.37 units/100ml. Repeated batch processing in juice sugarcane as a simulation to factories conditions proved that immobilized dextranase can be used for over 16 cycles with 49.8 % activity.
