Introduction | Fungal Alpha-Amylase is produced through submerged fermentation of Aspergillus Oryzae, followed by purification and formulation. This enzyme depolymerizes starch, resulting in starch liquefaction and viscosity reduction, with minimal side activities. As an endo-type α-amylase, it randomly hydrolyzes the α-1,4-glucosidic bonds in gelatinized starch and soluble dextrins, lowering the viscosity of the starch slurry and producing oligosaccharides along with a small amount of dextrin. |
Application |
Maltose syrup production: 15-0.3 L/t DS or syrup with maltose content below 54%. Brewing: 2-0.4 L/t DS at mash-in to improve extract yield, fermentable sugar level, and prevent the formation of chill haze; during fermentation 0.002-0.004 L/t DS to prevent chill haze, 0.02-0.1 g/t DS to reduce residual sugar level. Bread and steamed bun applications: 002-0.01 L/ton flour, often used together with Xylanase. |

Safety | Enzyme preparations are proteins that may induce sensitization and cause allergic-type symptoms in susceptible individuals. Prolonged contact may cause minor irritation for skin, eyes, or nasal mucosa. Any direct contact with the human body should be avoided. If irritation or allergic response for skin or eyes develops, please consult a doctor. |
Storage | Keep sealed in a dry and cool place and avoid direct sunlight. Slight sedimentation is acceptable since it will not impact the performance of the product. |
