Introduction | This product is produced by submerged fermentation of Aspergillus niger followed by purification and formulation. The pectinase has high activity in the acidic pH range (pH 3.3-4.0). |
Mechanism | Different types of pectinases (PG, PE, and PL) are involved in the product to ensure its efficient degradation of pectin. Besides, cellulase and hemi-cellulase in it help the removal of side chains in the pectin backbone, and will depolymerize pectin to the largest extent, which is very helpful for juice clarification and disintegration of plant cells releasing valuable components into juice. |
Application |
Fruit and vegetable processing: juice yield increase and juice clarification; viscosity reduction for puree or fruit powder when necessary. Plant extract: more yield of target components, smoother. Wine/cider: higher yield, more color extraction and better wine clarification or stabilization. Beverage: transparency and stability improvement. |
