Food Grade Glucose Oxidase Enzyme For Flour And Baking Additive
Introduction
Glucose Oxidase SBE-02GO is produced by submerged fermentation of Aspergillus niger followed by purification, formulation, and drying. The product is able to whiten flour, strengthen gluten, and improve dough handling properties and is often used for various baked products.

Mechanism
Glucose Oxidase can specifically catalyze β-D-glucose to form gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of oxygen, which promotes the formation of gluten network, and thereafter the dough handling properties and sensory properties of baked products.
Benefits And Dosage
- Improve the operational performance of dough.
- Improve the stability of dough.
- Improve the inflation rapidity and quality of bread.
- Reduce or replace chemical oxidant.
Dosage: For the baking industry: The recommended dosage is 2-40g per ton of flour. The dosage has to be optimized based on each application, the raw material specifications, product expectation, and processing parameters. It is better to begin the test with the convenient volume.
Package
Package: 1 kg / bag.
Storage
Storage: Keep sealed in a dry and cool place and avoid direct sunlight.
Shelf Life
Shelf life: 12 months in a dry and cool place.
Recommended Products Used Together
If glucose oxidase is used together with xylanase, fungal α-amylase, and phospholipase, it will contribute to improve the whole quality of the flour products.
Xylanase
Xylanase acts on xylan in flour and improves dough handling properties, crumb structure, and sensory properties of baked products. It can work synergistically with other baking enzymes like fungal amylase, glucose oxidase, lipase, etc.
Fungal α-amylase
Fungal α-amylase depolymerizes starch to produce oligosaccharides and a small amount of dextrin. The product performs well in flour correction and the baking industry.
Phospholipase
Phospholipase is beneficial to dough handling properties, gluten strengthening, and crumb texture. It has been used in the baking industry to improve dough stability, better crumb structure with better whiteness and crust luster, and increase the volume of bread and steamed bun.
Safety
Enzyme preparations are proteins that may induce sensitization and cause allergic-type symptoms in susceptible individuals. Prolonged contact may cause minor irritation for skin, eyes, or nasal mucosa. Any direct contact with the human body should be avoided. If irritation or allergic response for skin or eyes develops, please consult a doctor.
