Abstract excerpt
Long-chain alkyl glucosides, such as octyl and decyl β-d-glucopyranosides (OG and DG, respectively), are regarded as a new generation of biodegradable, non-ionic surfactants. Previously, the mutants of Dalbergia cochinchinensis Pierre dalcochinase showed potential in the synthesis of oligosaccharides and alkyl glucosides. In this study, the N189F dalcochinase mutant gave the highest yields of OG and DG synthesis...
