Prior art The enzymatic isomerization of sucrose in aqueous solution with D the aid of isomaltulose synthases (sucrose glucosylmutases, EC 5.4.99.11) to give isomaltulose is a known process. For example, DE1049800 describes a process for fermentative production of isomaltulose from sucrose-containing plant juices by means of the bacterial strain Protaminobacter rubrum. 5 Alternatively, enzymatic conversion may also be carried out using dead organisms. The cell mass is removed batchwise by centrifugation at the end of the reaction and the product is worked-up further. This process is found in the literature at H. Schiweck, alimenta 19, 5-16, 1980. D EP0001099 describes a process of continuous fermentation of the bacterial strains Protaminobacter rubrum (CBS574.77) and Serratia plymuthica (ATCC 15928) with concomitant isomerization of sucrose to isomaltulose using, inter alia, thick juice or thin juice as substrate, with the substrate solution itself being nutrient medium for culturing the cells. After the reaction the cells are removed from the product solution by means of centrifugation. Cultivating the biocatalytically active organisms separately from the actual isomerization in a medium other than the substrate medium is expressly shown to be disadvantageous. DE3241788 describes a process for preparing 1-0-a-D glucopyranosido-D-fructose from aqueous sucrose solutions with free cells of the bacterial strains from the group consisting of Protaminobacter rubrum (CBD574 .77), Serratia plymuthica (ATCC 15928), Serratia marescens (NCIB 8285), Leuconostoc WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -2 mesenteroides (NRRL-B-512 F) and Erwinia rhapontici (NCPPB 1578). The process described may use thick juice which also serves as carbon source for the cell-culturing process. In the case of immobilized cells, use is made of pure sucrose solution. 5 With the fermentative production of isomaltulose disclosed in the two aforementioned documents it is possible to employ economically and energetically reasonable thick juice under sterile conditions. It should be mentioned here, however, that, disadvantageously, some of the sucrose is utilized for producing D cell mass, and also complex sterile hardware as well as elaborate removal of the cell suspension from the product stream are required. EP0983374 describes a process for simultaneously preparing isomaltulose and betaine using immobilized bacterial strains from the group consisting of Protaminobacter rubrum (CBD574.77), Serratia plymuthica (ATCC 15928) and Erwinia rhapontici (NCPPB 1578). The production process starts with molasses, a composition which is produced at the end of the sugar manufacturing process. It is not possible to use thick juice as substrate in this process, which requires an explicit depletion of the sucrose by, for example, crystallization. W097/44478 describes a process for preparing isomaltulose using living, immobilized bacterial strains from the group consisting of Protaminobacter rubrum (CBD574.77), Serratia plymuthica (ATCC 15928) and Erwinia rhapontici (ATCC 29284). The production process starts with molasses or pure sucrose solution. EP0028900 describes a process for preparing isomaltulose using immobilized cells of the bacterial strain Erwinia rhapontici (NCPPB 1578). The production process starts with a pure sucrose solution with a maximum of 15% v/v molasses admixed. DE2217628, EP49472, EP3038219 and EP91063 describe processes using immobilized bacterial cells for enzymatic conversion of pure sucrose to isomaltulose. To this end, EP0625578 employs bacterial strains from the group consisting of Protaminobacter * rubrum (CBS 574.77), Serratia plymuthica (ATCC 15928), Serratia marcescens (NCIB 8285), Leuconostoc mesenteroides (NRRL-B 512 F WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -3 (ATCC 1083 a)) and Erwinia rhapontici (NCPPB 1578). EP0392556 and EP1257638 describe the use of bacterial strains from the group consisting of Klebsiella terrigena JCM 1687, Klebsiella sp. No. 88 (FERM BP-2838) and Klebsiella singaporensis LX3 and 5 LX21. DE3133123 and EP0915986 describe isomerization processes using immobilized cells and employing the enzyme catalysts of calcium alginate or ion exchangers in the immobilization processes. A common feature of all of the known processes for the ) isomerization of sucrose to isomaltulose using immobilized cells is that of only the end products of the sugar manufacturing process being utilized, namely pure sucrose or molasses. It was therefore an object of the present invention to provide a process which enables isomaltulose to be obtained from a readily 5 available sucrose source. Description of the invention Surprisingly we have now found that this object can be achieved by using sucrose-containing plant juices for preparing isomaltulose with the use of immobilized enzyme complexes. The present invention therefore relates to a process for preparing isomaltulose, comprising the process steps of A) contacting an immobilized enzyme complex capable of catalyzing the conversion of sucrose to isomaltulose with a sucrose-containing solution; B) isomerizing at least some of the sucrose to isomaltulose; C) removing the enzyme complex, and optionally D) further purifying the isomaltulose, characterized in that the sucrose-containing solution used is at least one of thick juice or thin juice, preferably thick juice.
WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -4 In this connection, the invention advantageously provides for the use of sucrose-containing plant juices as substrate for the isomerization. Despite the fact that the sucrose-containing solutions used are unpurified and therefore highly complex substrate mixtures, the present invention surprisingly achieves the same yield as and even a higher selectivity in the isomerization than with high purity sucrose. One advantage of the present invention is that, as a result of the increased residence time of the immobilized cells in combination with a crude plant juice as substrate, a substantially higher resource efficiency is achieved due to the purification step to give the high-purity sucrose being omitted. A further advantage of the present invention is that of being able to save energy and operating means by directly using thick juice. Another advantage of the present invention is that, owing to the use of thick juice, no buffer solutions of any kind or other additives are required for stabilizing the enzymatic activity, the enzymes employed rather being stabilized naturally. Yet another advantage of the present invention is that using sucrose-containing plant juices, in contrast to using purely aqueous sucrose solution, prevents a bleeding of the bed. Another advantage of the present invention is that of enabling the content of the cariogenic monosaccharides, fructose and glucose, to be reduced by using the thick juice during isomerization, compared to using purified sucrose solution. The term "isomaltulose" is to be understood as meaning 6-0-a-D glucopyranosido-D-fructose. The term "enzyme complex" is to be understood as meaning a composition or mixture composition which has at least one active enzyme and which may also be complex in nature, such as, for example, a living cell. Further examples of an enzyme complex are fusion proteins in which the at least one active enzyme is linked to at least one further polypeptide, but also a purified WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -5 enzyme itself can be an enzyme complex for the purposes of the present invention. In connection with the present invention, the term "immobilized enzyme complex" is to be understood as meaning an enzyme complex which is bound to or enclosed by a matrix in such a way that free diffusion of the enzyme complex or its free movement in an aqueous solution is restricted, for example slowed. In connection with the present invention, the term "thin juice" is to be understood as meaning the product which is present after juice purification in the production of sugar from sugar beets or sugar cane. Thin juice typically comprises 10-20% by weight of sucrose based on total juice. In connection with the present invention, the term "thick juice" is to be understood as meaning the thickened "thin juice" which comprises more than 20% by weight of sucrose based on total juice. Unless stated otherwise, all percentages (%) given are percentages by mass. In the process according to the invention, the sucrose containing solution used is advantageously thick juice; this can, if required, be diluted with water to a volume ratio of 1:5, based on thick juice to water, which results in a better controllable isomerization. More specifically, dilution of the thick juice with water is chosen for the thick juice to contain, at the start of process step A), a sucrose concentration of 20-80% by weight, in particular of 30-50% by weight, based on total juice. In particular, thin juice or thick juice from sugar beets is to be used advantageously, with particular preference being given to thick juice from sugar beets. The enzyme present in the immobilized enzyme complex is preferably at least one sucrose glucosylmutase of enzyme class EC 5.4.99.11. Particular preference is given to using sucrose glucosylmutases from Protaminobacter rubrum, in particular the strain Protaminobacter rubrum CBS 574.77 and those with Seq ID WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -6 Nos. 5 and 6; Protaminobacter ruber Z12; Serratia plymuthica, in particular the strain Serratia plymuthica ATCC 15928; Serratia odorifera, in particular the strain Serratia odorifera 4Rx13 (Seq ID No. 7); Serratia marcescens, in particular the strain Serratia marcescens NCIB 8285; Leuconostoc mesenteroides, in particular the strain Leuconostoc mesenteroides ATCC 1083 a; Erwinia rhapontici, in particular the strains Erwinia rhapontici ATCC29283 (Seq ID No. 1) , NCPPB 1578, DSM 4484 (Seq ID No. 8), NX-5 (Seq ID No. 9) and WAC2928 (Seq ID No. 10); Erwinia sp., in particular the strain Erwinia sp.

FMB-1 (Seq ID NO. 16), SZ62 and Ejp617 (Seq ID NO. 14); Azotobacter vinelandii DJ (Seq ID NO. 15) in the process according to the invention, with Protaminobacter rubrum CBS 574.77 and Protaminobacter ruber Z12 being particularly preferred. The enzymes may be employed in purified form by way of polypeptides. For ease of purification, these can be in the form of fusion proteins, with, for example, a tag facilitating purification, such as for example a His tag, a Strep tag, a GST tag or an MBP tag, being fused to the enzyme.
WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -7 In the process according to the invention, preference is given to the enzyme complex being whole cells which are preferably selected from the group consisting of Protaminobacter rubrum, in particular the strain Protaminobacter rubrum CBS 574.77; 5 Protaminobacter ruber Z12; Serratia plymuthica, in particular the strain Serratia plymuthica ATCC 15928; Serratia odorifera, in particular the strain Serratia odorifera 4Rx13; Serratia marcescens, in particular the strain Serratia marcescens NCIB 8285; Leuconostoc mesenteroides, in particular the strain D Leuconostoc mesenteroides ATCC 1083 a; Erwinia rhapontici, in particular the strains Erwinia rhapontici ATCC29283, NCPPB 1578, DSM 4484, NX-5 and WAC2928; Erwinia sp., in particular the strain Erwinia sp.

FMB-1, SZ62 and Ejp617; Azotobacter vinelandii DJ, with Protaminobacter rubrum CBS 574.77 and Protaminobacter ruber Z12 being particularly preferred. The enzyme complexes may be immobilized, for example, in the form of CLEAs (insoluble crosslinked enzyme aggregates) (Cao, L. et al., 2000, Cross-linked enzyme aggregates: a simple and effective method for the immobilization of penicillin acylase, Org. Lett., 2: 1361-1264) or on solid support materials of natural or synthetic origin. Examples of natural materials are polysaccharides such as alginate, agarose, sepharose, cellulose and its derivatives (e.g. DEAE- or CM-cellulose) . It is also WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -8 possible to use modified sepharoses, for example epoxy activated, bromocyanogen-activated, NHS-activated, thiol activated sepharose. These sepharoses are commercially available for example from the companies GE Healthcare, BioRad, Sigma and Pierce. Synthetic organic polymers which may be employed are polystyrene derivatives, polyacrylates, in particular epoxide-activated acrylic resin beads (Eupergit), polymethacrylates, polyacrylamides, vinyl and allyl polymers, polyesters or polyamides. Possible inorganic carriers are materials based on silicon oxides or aluminium oxides, or mixtures thereof. The enzyme complexes may also be immobilized by encapsulation in polymeric porous gels e.g. hydrophobic sol-gel materials of RSi(OCH 3
)
3 or mixtures of RSi(OCH 3
)
3 and Si(OCH 3
)
4 (Reetz, M.T.; Zonta, A.; Simpelkamp, J.; Rufinska, A.; Tesche, B. J. Sol-Gel Sci. Technol. 1996, 7, p. 35-43) or of porous polymeric silica gels (Elgren, T.M.; Zadvorny, O.A.; Brecht, E.; Douglas, T.; Zorin, N.A.; Maroney, M. J. & Peters, J. W.). Besides immobilization, multiple usage of the enzyme in enzyme membrane reactors is also conceivable. The enzyme complexes employed in the process according to the invention, in particular cells, are preferably immobilized in polysaccharides such as alginate, pectin, carrageenan, chitosan or polyvinyl alcohols, such as lentikats for example, or mixtures thereof, in particular in alginate; cf. in this regard for example Shimizu, H., et al. (1997) Screening of novel microbial enzymes for the production of biologically and chemically useful compounds, in: Advances in biochemical engineering biotechnology, Vol58: New Enzymes for Organic Synthesis (Scheper, T., ed.) pp. 45-88, Springer, New York.
WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 -9 A particularly preferred immobilization to be used for any form of the enzyme complexes employed in the process according to the invention is the process described in EP2011865, in which the enzyme complexes immobilized on an inert support are provided with a silicone coating obtained by hydrosilylation. According to the invention, preference is given to the pH in process step B) being from 4 to 9.5. This pH is advantageously adjusted by means of an acid, in particular an inorganic acid, preferably from the group consisting of sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid and acetic acid. According to the invention, preference is furthermore given to the temperature, measured in the sucrose-containing solution, in process step B) being from 20 to 400C, preferably from 25 to 350C. In process step C), the enzyme complex is removed from the isomaltulose, for example by filtration, sedimentation or centrifugation. Due to the immobilizate character of the enzyme complex, said removal is easier than with non-immobilized enzyme. For reasons of process economy, it is preferred according to the invention if the immobilized enzyme complex is used in the form of a solid bed through which the sucrose-containing solution flows (H. Schiweck, Zuckerind. (1990), 115 (7), 555-565). Corresponding solid-bed processes are described in A. Liese, et. al. Processes in A. Liese, K. Seelbach, C. Wandrey (Eds.), Industrial Biotransformations 2nd Edition (2006), Wiley-VCH, Weinheim. In such a process, process steps A) to C) are continuous, and thus merging into one another up to being simultaneous. The isomaltulose may be further purified in the optional process step D), in particular by crystallization or chromatography. Corresponding procedures are described in DE3241788 and EP0983374.
WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 - 10 The examples listed below describe the present invention by way of example without any intention of limiting the invention, the scope of which arises from the entire description and the claims, to the embodiments specified in the examples. Examples: Example 1: Preparation of the biocatalyst Cells were washed off a subculture of the strain Protaminobacter rubrum (CBS574.77) with 1-5 ml of a sterile nutrient medium consisting of 50 g/kg sucrose, 15 g/kg corn steep liquor, 7 g/kg ammonium sulphate, 0.5 g/kg yeast extract, 1 g/kg potassium dihydrogen sulphate, 0.41 g/kg magnesium chloride heptahydrate, 0.004 g/kg manganese chloride tetrahydrate, 0.047 g/kg iron citrate monohydrate and 926 g/kg water, if necessary adjusted to pH 7.2. This suspension served as inoculum for the preculture, which comprises 200 ml of the above nutrient solution in a 1 1 shaker flask. After cultivation at 30 0 C for 20 hours, a 2 1 fermenter containing one litre of sterile production medium consisting of 50 g/kg sucrose, 15 g/kg corn steep liquor, 3 g/kg ammonium sulphate, 4 g/kg ammonium hydrogen phosphate, 0.5 g/kg yeast extract, 1 g/kg potassium dihydrogen sulphate, 0.41 g/kg magnesium chloride heptahydrate, 0.004 g/kg manganese chloride tetrahydrate, 0.047 g/kg iron citrate monohydrate and 926 g/kg water, adjusted to pH 7.2, was inoculated with the preculture in such a way that the initial optical density (OD 600 ) was 1. Fermentation was carried out at 30 0 C, pH 7 (regulated) and a P02 of 30% (cascade stirrer, Airflow) . Sucrose was fed in during fermentation. After 15-20 h, the fermentation process was complete and the biomass was harvested for immobilization.
WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 - 11 For this purpose, the suspension obtained was mixed with water and a 4% strength alginate solution with a 1:1 volume ratio. This suspension was then immobilized by adding it dropwise to a 2% strength CaCl 2 solution. The resulting beads were post-cured with polyethylenimine and glutaraldehyde. The resulting biocatalyst can be stored for several weeks at 4-10 0 C. Example 2: Preparation of isomaltulose by isomerizing pure sucrose solution (not according to the invention) Pure sucrose was prepared from a thick juice from sugar beets as described in Sugar in Ullman's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemisty (2007); the sucrose yield is 88.3 %. The immobilized cells obtained in Example 1 were introduced into a heatable column reactor and heated to 20-35 0 C. A sucrose solution with a dry substance (ds) content of 35 to 45% was prepared from said pure sucrose and tap water and passed through the column reactor in a continuous stream. HPLC analysis of the isomaltulose solution leaving the column reactor revealed in this process step averages for yield, selectivity and turnover of: yield 85% selectivity 91% turnover 94% The yield of this process was 75%, based on sucrose used. Example 3: Preparation of isomaltulose by isomerizing thick juice (according to the invention) The immobilized cells obtained in Example 1 are introduced into a heatable column reactor and heated to 20-35 0 C, and the above described diluted thick juice from sugar beets with a content of 35 to 45% ds sucrose is passed through in a continuous stream.
WO 2012/150051 PCT/EP2012/052096 - 12 HPLC analysis of the isomaltulose solution leaving the column reactor revealed averages for yield, selectivity and turnover of: yield 82% selectivity 91% turnover 90% The yield of this process was 82%, based on sucrose used, and thus is 7 % higher than the yield of a process of the prior art. Example 4: Selectivity comparison of the isomerization of thick juice compared to the isomerization of pure sucrose solution A column reactor heated to 300C was charged with immobilized cells obtained according to Example 1. Purified sucrose solution, the concentration of which was adjusted with tap water to 40% dry substance content and the pH of which was adjusted to 6 with concentrated sulphuric acid, was passed through column reactor 1 in a continuous stream. Thick juice from sugar beets, diluted to 40% sucrose dry substance content and adjusted to pH 6 with concentrated sulphuric acid, was passed through column reactor 2 in a continuous stream. To improve the determinability of the selectivities, the isomaltulose yields in both column reactors were set to an identical value of 79%, based on the particular sucrose dry substance content, by adjusting the volume stream. Analytical determination was carried out by way of HPLC analysis of the isomaltulose solution obtained. ) The selectivities achieved were as follows: selectivity (thick juice) 85 % selectivity (sucrose solution) 83 % In addition, formation of the undesired, since cariogenic, monosaccharides, fructose and glucose, was reduced by approx. 10% (based on dry substance) in the final product by using thick juice compared with the use of purified sucrose solution.
