Biotransformation of daidzein, genistein and biochanin A by three selected filamentous fungi was investigated. As a result of biotransformations, six glycosylation products were obtained. Fungus <i>Beauveria bassiana</i> converted all tested isoflavones to 4″-<i>O</i>-methyl-7-<i>O</i>-glucosyl derivatives, whereas <i>Absidia coerulea</i> and <i>Absidia glauca</i> were able to transform genistein and biochanin A to genistin and sissotrin, respectively. In the culture of <i>Absidia coerulea</i>, ...[more]
