Abstract
Abstract
Both the components of rutin, quercetin and rutinose are pharmaceutically important compounds of medicinal values. A simple process for the preparation of quercetin and rutinose from rutin based on a diglycosidase catalysed reaction has been reported. The diglycosidase is secreted by a fungal strain Fusarium moniliforme MTCC 2015. The enzyme solution as secreted by the fungal strain in its medium has been used for this transformation and purification of enzyme is not required. The potential of the process in the context of available literature has been discussed.
