Food Grade Glucose Isomerase for High-Fructose Syrup | Summary | This enzyme is extensively used in the industrial production of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), and it can also be used to boost cellulosic ethanol yield and used in the production of low glycemic index foods. |
| Description | Glucose isomerase (GI, EC 5.3.1.5), also known as D-xylose ketol isomerase, xylose isomerase (XI), xylose ketoisomerase, or xylose ketol-isomerase, is one of the three most widely produced industrial enzymes, alongside amylase and protease. It plays a crucial role in the industrial production of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and can also enhance cellulosic ethanol yields. Additionally, glucose isomerase is utilized in the manufacture of low glycemic index foods. |
| Advantages |
Production of high-fructose syrup More cellulosic ethanol Conversion of glucose into fructose whenever necessary |
| Application | Used for production of high-fructose syrup, cellulosic ethanol and low glycemic foods |
| Application Area |
Ethanol Starch sugar Food |
| Application Recommendation |
The highest activity required in the reaction system is Mg2+ and Co2+. Their optimum concentrations are 10^-2 mol/L and 10^-3 mol/L, respectively. The dosage has to be optimized based on each application, the raw material specifications, product expectation and processing parameters. It is better to begin the test with the convenient volume. |
