Best Price Alpha Amylase Enzyme

Short Description:

Alpha-amylase can be extracted from a variety of sources, including plants (such as soybeans, corn), animals (such as saliva and pancreas), and microorganisms (such as bacteria and fungi). Alpha-amylase is an important enzyme that belongs to the amylase family and is mainly responsible for catalyzing the hydrolysis of polysaccharides such as starch and glycogen. It breaks down starch into smaller sugar molecules, such as maltose and glucose, by cutting the alpha-1, 4-glucoside bond in the starch molecule.

Product Benefits

Alpha-amylase functions include:
1. Starch liquefaction and saccharification aid: α-amylase first liquefies starch into dextrin and oligosaccharides, creating conditions for saccharification. During saccharification, saccharifying enzymes convert dextrin and oligosaccharides into monosaccharides, which are used in the production of beer, liquor, high fructose syrup, etc.
2. Improve food quality: In baked goods, the appropriate amount of α-amylase can adjust the dough characteristics, dextrin and oligosaccharides produced by hydrolyzed starch can increase the water retention of dough, making it more soft and easy to operate.
3. Textile desizing and papermaking fiber treatment: In the textile industry, α-amylase can decompose the starch slurry on the yarn to achieve desizing.

Application

Applications of α-amylase include:
1. Food industry: Brewing industry, in beer, liquor, soy sauce brewing, α-amylase can quickly liquefy starch, for fermentation sugar; Starch sugar production; Baked goods, α-amylase can improve dough properties.
2. Feed industry: the animal's own amylase may not be able to fully digest feed starch, adding α-amylase can improve feed utilization and promote animal growth, especially for piglets and young birds with incomplete digestive system.
3. Textile industry: α-amylase is used for desizing process, which can efficiently remove starch paste, improve fabric wettability and dyeing performance, reduce damage, improve product quality, and meet environmental protection requirements.
4. Paper industry: It can improve the dispersion of paper raw materials, improve the evenness and strength of paper, reduce the use of chemical additives, and play a prominent role in the production of special paper.
