Neutral Protease Enzyme for Efficient Protein Hydrolysis

Product Description

Neutral Protease is refined through submerged fermentation and ultrafiltration using Bacillus subtilis. This product is a food-grade neutral protease with a relatively wide pH range, and exhibits excellent activity under neutral and moderately alkaline conditions.

Working Principle

Proteases belong to the class of hydrolases. According to the hydrolysis site on the peptide chain, proteases can be classified into endopeptidases, aminopeptidases and carboxypeptidases.

Aminopeptidases and carboxypeptidases hydrolyze peptide bonds close to the N-terminus or C-terminus of protein substrates, while endopeptidases act inside the protein, far from its N-terminus and C-terminus.

These enzymes act together on peptide bonds in protein molecules, hydrolyzing proteins into oligopeptides and amino acids. Neutral Protease mainly contains endopeptidase activity, with a small amount of aminopeptidase and carboxypeptidase activity.

Product Characteristics

Temperature Range: Effective temperature: 30℃ – 65℃ Optimal temperature: 40℃ – 50℃

PH Range: Effective PH: 5.5 – 10.0  Optimal PH: 6.5 – 8.5

Usage Instructions

The recommended dosage is 0.01–3 kg per ton of raw material.

However, due to differences in application fields, raw material composition and process parameters in different factories, the actual addition method and dosage of this product should be determined through tests.

Precautions

Enzymes are protein-based substances. For sensitive individuals, inhalation of enzyme powder or droplets may case allergic reactions. Prolonged exposure may irritate the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. It is recommended to wear a face mask during operation. If the product accidentally splashes onto the skin or eyes, rinse immediately with clean water.

Package and Storage

Package Options: 25kg plastic drums or 1000kg IBC tanks or customized.

As a bioactive substance, the enzyme may deactivate under high temperature, strong acids, or strong alkalis. Therefore, avoid direct sunlight during transportation and storage. And After opening, reseal tightly to prevent enzyme deactivation. Keep in a clean, cool, and dry warehouse.
