Protease
Protease is a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. Proteases are commonly produced through microbial fermentation and are used in food, feed, detergent, pharmaceutical, and industrial processing applications. Different types of protease are designed to function optimally within specific pH ranges.
Acid Protease
Acid protease is a protease enzyme that exhibits optimum activity under acidic conditions. It catalyzes the breakdown of proteins into peptides and amino acids in low pH environments.
Usage and Applications
Acid protease is used in food processing, fermentation, feed, and industrial applications where protein hydrolysis is required under acidic conditions.
Usage levels depend on enzyme activity, substrate type, pH, temperature, and process requirements.
Storage Instructions
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Keep the container tightly sealed to maintain enzyme stability.
Avoid exposure to excessive heat and humidity.
Alkaline Protease
Alkaline protease is a protease enzyme that exhibits optimum activity under alkaline conditions. It catalyzes the breakdown of proteins into peptides and amino acids in higher pH environments.
Usage and Applications
Alkaline protease is used in detergent, leather, feed, food processing, and industrial applications where protein hydrolysis is required under alkaline conditions.
Usage levels depend on enzyme activity, substrate type, pH, temperature, and process requirements.
