✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The combination of sucrose analogues as novel substrates (substrate engineering) and highly active recombinant β‐fructofuranosidase from A. niger (genetic engineering) provides a new powerful tool for the efficient preparative synthesis of tailor‐made saccharides of the important 1‐kestose and 1‐nystose type headed with different monosaccharides of interest. These novel compounds have been isolated. They did not display toxic effects or suppress cell growth in initial studies, making these new compounds potential candidates for prebiotics.

## Abstract Electrohydrodynamic jetting has the ability to capture and translate different phases of evolution in a living sol into materials with grossly different morphologies such as fibres or remarkably, as shown in this work, monodisperse spherical nanoparticles, depending on the sol propertie
