Abstract Objective Extracellular fructosyltransferase (FTase, E.C.2.4.1.9) from Aspergillus oryzae IPT-301 was immobilized on silica gel by adsorption and biochemically characterized aiming at its application in the transfructosylation reaction of sucrose for the production of fructooligossaccarides (FOS). Results The transfructosylation activity (AT) was maximized by the experimental design in function of the reaction pHs and temperatures. The AT of the

immobilized enzyme showed the kinetics behavior described by the Hill model. The immobilized FTase showed reuse capacity for six consecutive reaction cycles and higher pH and thermal stability than the soluble enzyme. Conclusion These results suggest a high potential of application of silica gel as support for FTase immobilization aiming at FOS production.

Introduction Fructosyltransferase (FTase, E.C.2.4.1.9) is an enzyme that catalyzes the transference of fructosyl groups to sucrose, via b-2,1 glycosidic bonds, for the production of fructooligossaccarides (FOS), fructose oligomers with high commercial interest in food and pharmaceutical industries (Yun and Song 1996; Huang et al. 2016; Castro et al. 2017; Nobre et al. 2018). Short-chain FOS such as 1-kestose (GF2), nystose (GF3) and b-fructofuranosylnystose (GF4) are important functional sugars in food fabrication because their consumption offers several benefits to human health, such as: low-calorie, prebiotic and anticariogenic properties, help in the control of
