medicine | pierarin (daidzein 8-C-glucoside), can be used to treat coronary heart disease, cardiac infarction, problems in ocular blood flow, sudden deafness, and alcoholism. However puerarin cannot be given by injection due to its low solubility in water. To increase its solubility, puerarin is transglycosylated using Bacillus stearothermophilus maltogenic amylase. Two major transfer products are alpha-D-glucosyl-(1,6)-puerarin and alpha-D-maltosyl-(1,6)-puerarin. The solubility of the transfer products is 14 and 168 times higher than that of puerarin, respectively | Geobacillus stearothermophilus |
