The production of flavonoid glycosides by removing rhamnose from rutinosides can be accomplished through enzymatic catalysis. Naringinase is an enzyme complex, expressing both -L-rhamnosidase and -D-glucosidase activities, with application in glycosides hydrolysis. To produce monoglycosylated flavonoids with naringinase, the expression of -D-glucosidase activity is not desirable leading to the need of expensive methods for -L-rhamnosidase purification. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was the inactivation of -D-glucosidase activity expressed by naringinase keeping -L-rhamnosidase with a high retention activity. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to evaluate the effects of temperature and pH on -D-glucosidase inactivation. A selective inactivation of -D-glucosidase activity of naringinase was achieved at C and pH 3.9, keeping a very high residual activity of -L-rhamnosidase (78%). This was a crucial achievement towards an easy and cheap production method of very expensive flavonoids, like prunin and isoquercetin starting from naringin and rutin, respectively.
