Abstrakt: Highlights: [•] This is the first systematic production of levan in fermenter by B. subtilis natto. [•] This is the most efficient levan production reported to date. [•] Pulsed feeding of sucrose enhanced the levan production significantly. [•] Sucrose concentration is the most effective factor controlling the size of the levan. [•] Levans of different molecular sizes can be tailor-made to meet various applications. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
