Food
Supplement Enzymes
These are enzymes that are used in direct ingestion
applications. They are often components of tablets marketed
as digestive aids. Some are used as single ingredient components,
such as Lactase, Bromelain, or Papain.
PROTEASES
ENZECO® PURIFIED PAPAIN
Derived from papaya. Available in concentrations denoted in
Milk Clot units (MCU/mg), Tyrosine units (TU/mg), Food Chemicals
Codex units, (FCC/mg), the FCC method uses the new "H"
standard. (from 2000 to 50,000 FCC units/mg.
available).
ENZECO® BROMELAIN
Derived from pineapple. Standardized on Milk Clot Units (MCU/mg),
Casein Digestion Units (CDU/mg), Bromelain Tyrosine Units
(BTU/ gram), or Gelatin Digestion Units (GDU/gram) from
100 to 3000+ GDU/gram available.
ENZECO® FUNGAL PROTEASE CONCENTRATE
A fungal enzyme preparation derived from A. oryzae.
Standardized on the HUT method. Maximum activity of 500,000
HUT/g available.
ENZECO® FUNGAL
PROTEASE 400
A fungal enzyme preparation derived from A.
oryzae. The
enzyme contains proteases that show optimums in the range
of 4 - 6 pH and another optimum at 8 - 10 pH. The activity
is 400,000 HUT/gram.
ENZECO® FUNGAL
PROTEASE 100
A fungal enzyme preparation derived from A. oryzae. The
enzyme contains proteases that show optimums in the range of
6 - 8 pH and contains the highest level of aminopeptidase activity.
ENZECO® FUNGAL ACID PROTEASE
Derived from A. niger, this protease has a
pH optimum of 2.5 - 3.5. The temperature optimum
is similar
to A. oryzae proteases. Its low pH optimum has proven
useful in protein hydrolysis as a kosher alternate
to pepsin.
ENZECO® TRYPSIN/CHYMOTRYPSIN
Bovine and Porcine sources available in a variety of
ratios of Trypsin:Chymotrypsin
CARBOHYDRASES
ENZECO® FUNGAL AMYLASE
From Aspergillus oryzae. Activity available
up to 125,000 SKB U/g.
ENZECO® FUNGAL LACTASE
Derived from Aspergillus oryzae, hydrolyzes
lactose into glucose and galactose. 100,000 FCC LU/gram
activity.
ENZECO® LACTASE NL
Derived from Kluyveromyces - liquid minimum
2300 YLU/G.
ENZECO® PECTINASE
This is a multi-component pectin degrading enzyme.
Derived from Aspergillus niger.
LIPASES
ENZECO® MICROBIAL LIPASE CONCENTRATE
A fungal preparation derived from Aspergillus niger.
Kosher certified upon request.
ENZECO® MICROBIAL LIPASE RO20
An enzyme preparation derived from R. oryzae and
used in supplements to hydrolyze fats and oils. It
has a temperature
optimum of 35 to 40 degrees C.
CELLULASES/HEMICELLULASES
ENZECO® CELLULASE FG
Derived from Aspergillus niger. High in activity
on a broad range of cellulose and hemicellulose forms.
ENZECO® CELLULASE CEP
A fungal cellulase preparation
high in activity on cellulose and glucans. Maximum
activity
of 100,000 ECU/g. Contains significant levels of glucan and
xylan hydrolyzinging enzymes
ENZECO® XYLANASE S CONCENTRATE
A fungal preparation high in chemically activity as
measured against xylan. Also contains moderate amounts
of cellulase.
Available in concentrations up to 3 million units per gram.
ENZECO® HEMICELLULASE
CONCENTRATE
Derived from A. niger. Standardized on its hemicellulase
activity. Contains significant amounts of hemicellulase,
mannanase, guarase,
xylanase. Also contains some cellulase, and betaglucanase
OTHER ENZYMES
ENZOPHARM®, ENZOPHARM® PLUS
Fungal preparations standardized to contain high amylase
and protease activity with major or minor amounts
of many other
side activities present, depending on the version selected.
ENZECO® LYSOZYME CHLORIDE
Derived from egg whites. Available as a liquid, a powder,
or lyophilized crystalline form.
ENZECO® INVERTASE
A yeast derived enzyme which inverts sucrose to form
glucose and fructose. Available as a powder or a
liquid. Invertase
is sometimes referred to as sucrase.
