Acarbose effectively inhibited the synthesis of dextran, and the inhibition pattern was a noncompetitive type with ?? value of 1.35mM. It also inhibited the disproport-ionation reaction of dextransucrase with isomaltotriose and decreased the efficiency of the maltose acceptor reaction. Increased concentration of dextransucrase or maltose in reaction digests, however, decreased the degree of inhibition by acarbose.
