Food Grade Alpha Amylase Enzyme Powder
Introduction
High-temperature tolerant α-amylase is produced by submerged fermentation of Bacillus subtilis followed by purification and formulation. The product is thermostable α-amylase, bringing the benefit of easy inactivation.
The enzyme is widely used in starch-related industries where degradation of starch is necessary, such as starch sugar processing (glucose, maltose, dextrin, fructose, oligosaccharide), alcohol fermentation, brewing, monosodium glutamate fermentation, organic acid production, textile, papermaking, and others.

Recommended Dosage
- Alcohol and ethanol industry: The recommended dosage is 0.6-1.2L per ton of total raw materials.
- Brewing industry: The recommended dosage is 0.4-0.8L of the enzyme preparation per ton of total raw materials, added at mashing-in.
- Starch sugar industry: The recommended dosage is 0.5-1.0L per ton of dry starch.
- Other industries: Can also be used in the processing of rice wine, vinegar, antibiotics, and citric acid industry, etc. to increase yield and reduce fermentation time.
Reminding: The dosage has to be optimized based on each application, the raw material specifications, product expectations, and processing parameters. It is better to begin the test with the convenient volume.

Safety
Enzyme preparations are proteins, which may induce sensitization and cause allergic-type reactions in sensitized individuals. Prolonged contact may cause minor irritation for skin, eyes, or nasal mucosa, so any direct contact with the human body should be avoided. If irritation or allergic response for skin or eyes develops, consult a doctor.
