Patent ID: 7998709

Claim:
A process for producing a soluble starch hydrolyzate, comprising subjecting an aqueous granular starch slurry at a temperature below the initial gelatinization temperature of said granular starch to the action of a first enzyme and a second enzyme, wherein (a) the first enzyme (i) is a member of Glycoside Hydrolase Family 13; (ii) has alpha-1,4-glucosidic hydrolysis activity; and (iii) comprises a functional carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) belonging to CBM Family 20, which has an amino acid sequence having at least 90% homology to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3; and (b) the second enzyme is a fungal alpha-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1), a beta-amylase (E.C. 3.2.1.2), or a glucoamylase (E.C.3.2.1.3).
