Pektinaasi

Sovellukset
Used by juice manufacturers for apple, orange, berry and tropical fruit processing to increase juice yield, reduce viscosity and accelerate clarification and filtration. In wineries and distilleries, pectinase supports maceration of red and white grape mashes, improves color extraction, enhances press efficiency and reduces haze in finished wine or wash prior to fermentation. Clarification-grade liquid pectinase is suitable for direct dosing in tanks, while high-activity powders are preferred for controlled addition in concentrate production and dry blending. Feed-grade pectinase is applied in compound feed to improve nutrient release and support better digestion of plant-based raw materials.
