Key Benefits

  • High enzymatic activity for rapid hydrolysis: This protease exhibits strong catalytic performance, enabling the rapid and efficient breakdown of complex protein structures into smaller peptides and amino acids.
  • Broad pH and temperature tolerance: Designed for versatility, the enzyme maintains excellent stability and activity across a wide range of pH levels and processing temperatures. This flexibility allows it to perform reliably under varying production conditions, making it suitable for diverse food processing systems.
  • Multi-process application compatibility: The enzyme is well-suited for a variety of processing techniques, including marination, soaking, and extraction, hydrolysis, and protein modification. Its adaptability ensures seamless integration into different production workflows, supporting both traditional and advanced processing requirements.

Applications

  • Meat processing. This enzyme is widely applied in the processing of beef, pork, poultry, lamb, and other meat products. It effectively improves tenderness by breaking down muscle proteins, and accelerates marinade penetration for better flavor distribution.
  • Seafood processing. This protease is suitable for a variety of seafood applications, including fish, shrimp, shellfish, and surimi production. It increases protein solubility and facilitates the production of high-quality seafood protein hydrolysates, making it particularly valuable for functional food and nutraceutical applications.
  • Egg and dairy protein hydrolysis. In egg and dairy processing, the enzyme efficiently hydrolyzes proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids with improved solubility and mild flavor profiles. This makes it ideal for the development of nutritional formulations, and flavor enhancers.
  • Plant protein modification. The enzyme is highly effective in modifying plant-based proteins such as soy, pea, and wheat. It improves solubility, reduces undesirable off-flavors (such as beany notes), and enhances overall functionality.

Recommended Dosage

The optimal dosage of this enzyme preparation should be determined based on the specific substrate characteristics, desired degree of hydrolysis, and actual processing conditions such as temperature, pH, and reaction time. As a general guideline, a recommended dosage range is 0.1-10 kg per metric ton of raw materials.

Storage

The product should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat or moisture. Exposure to high humidity, elevated temperatures, or prolonged light may lead to a reduction in enzyme activity. To ensure optimal stability and preserve its catalytic performance throughout the shelf life, the packaging should be kept tightly sealed when not in use. After each use, promptly close the container to prevent contamination, moisture absorption, and potential loss of activity.
