Cellooctaose

Cellooctaose, an oligosaccharide comprising eight glucose units, serves as an economical polysaccharide substrate in fermentation processes to support the growth of Lactococcus lactis recombinant strains. Additionally, cellooctaose acts as a substrate for the enzyme beta-glucosidase (E.C. 3.2.1.21) [1] [2].
