In an earlier study by us [47], thermo-responsive bioconjugate (poly-N-isopropylacrylamide-beta-galactosidase) was synthesized and characterized. This study utilizes the prowess of such smart bioconjugate for the enzymatic synthesis of galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) from lactose at various initial lactose concentrations (ILC), enzyme concentrations, and temperatures, while maintaining a constant pH of 6. A maximum GOS yield of 35% (on dry basis) was observed at 100 g/L ILC and 0.275 mg/mL (0.055 U/mL) conjugated protein. The GOS yield remained approximately the same for 50 and 100 g/L ILC, beyond which, it decreased. As the enzyme concentration increased, the equilibrium formation of GOS increased and eventually attained a plateau when the concentration of conjugated protein exceeded 0.275 mg/mL (0.055 U/mL). GOS yield increased on raising the temperature from 30 to 40 degrees C, and declined thereafter. The apparent kinetic parameters were estimated from a five-step, nine-parameter kinetic model, which was then simulated using the COPASI package. The simulated results demonstrated an excellent match with the experimental data. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
