Summary | The microbial TG is applied in many segments to improve functional properties of meat and protein products by cross-linking. It's often used in meat reconstructuring. At the same time, the lysine is protected from maillard reaction. |
Description |
This product is developed through submerged fermentation of Streptomyces mobaraensis, followed by purification and formulation. In the food industry, transglutaminase (TG) is utilized across various segments to enhance the functional properties of meat and protein products, such as improving texture, gel characteristics, elasticity, and water and fat retention. Additionally, it prevents lysine from undergoing a Maillard reaction. Transglutaminase (TG) is an enzyme that catalyzes transamination reactions. Specifically, it facilitates the binding of the γ-carboxamide group of L-glutamine to the ε-amino group of L-lysine. This process induces covalent cross-linking between proteins or peptides, which leads to modifications in protein functionality and the texture of meat products. |
Advantages |
Microbial transglutaminase Used for meat reconstruction Modification of protein functionality surimi and and youghurt texture imrprovement |
Application | For meat reconstructure, improvement in texture of surumi, youghurt, meat ball and protein functinality |
Application Area | Meat, egg and milk processing |
Application Recommendation | 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 smallest quantity. The covalent bond formed by TGase is hard to split by non-enzymic means. Once the treated minced meat is shaped, the shape is set and resistant to freezing or slicing or cooking. |
