Abstract

The present invention provides a method for the production of γ-CD, comprising making a starch slurry, incubating with γ-CGTase and isoamylase simultaneously for γ-CD production, forming a complex of γ-CD and an organic complexant, and purifying γ-CD from the complexant. The present invention provides a simple and cost-effective method for producing high purity γ-CD, which has a short production cycle, a high conversion rate, and is adaptable to large-scale industrial production.
