A new β-galactosidase from Paenibacillus wynnii with potential for industrial applications

Researchers at the University of Hohenheim, Stuttgart, used the INFORS HT Minifors bioreactor to cultivate a promising new β-galactosidase enzyme from Paenibacillus wynnii. Known as BgaPw, this enzyme excels in lactose hydrolysis with impressive activity and resistance to product inhibition, paving the way for industrial applications in lactose conversion.
