Production of the Convertible Enzyme of Ginsenoside Rb1 by Rhizopus japonicus
|

Abstract
|
|
|
|
In ginseng saponin, ginsenoside-Rb₁ was contained the most abundantly. But ginsenoside-Rd which is similar to ginsenoside Rb₁ in structure was known to be superior to ginsenoside-Rb₁ pharmaceutically. A strain of Rhizopus japonicus is able to produce the convertible enzyme which can convert selectively ginsenoside-Rb₁ to ginsenoside-Rd without the change of any other ginsenoside. The strain can produce the most enzyme after 5 day-culture on wheat bran medium. The enzyme production was promoted best efficiently by addition of red ginseng powder in ginseng products, xylose in sugars, laminarin in polysaccharides, naringin in flavonoids, and potassium nitrate in nitrogen substrates.
