What is pectinase?

Plant extract pectinase is not only found in higher plants, but also widely distributed in certain microorganisms, especially pathogenic microorganisms that infect plants. Through microbial fermentation and refining processes, we can obtain high-quality pectinase products. It usually appears as a white powder, easily soluble in water, and insoluble in ethanol. Its optimal working environment is acidic conditions with a pH value of about 3.5 and a moderate temperature of 50°C. Depending on the substrate, pectinase can be divided into various types such as pectinesterase, polygalacturonase and pectin lyase, which play different physiological functions in organisms. Our pectinase can be widely used in the food industry, as food additives, and added to juice to improve the quality of juice.

What effect does it have?

1. Improve the quality of juice: Pectinase can hydrolyze the pectin in the fruit, increase the extraction rate of the juice, make the juice clearer and more translucent, reduce turbidity, and improve the overall quality of the juice.
2. Accelerate food processing: In the processing of jams, jelly and other foods, pectinase can destroy the pectin structure, making the product taste better and have a more delicate texture, while shortening the processing time and improving production efficiency.
3. Promote the wine-making process: Pectinase plays an important role in the wine-making process. It can accelerate steps such as fermentation, pressing and clarification, improve the yield and quality of wine, and bring significant economic benefits to the wine-making industry.
4. Wide range of biological activities: Pectinase also has a wide range of biological activities, contains pharmaceutical raw materials, and can be used in pharmaceutical chemicals, the textile industry, biological research and other fields, showing its unique value and potential.

How to apply?

1. Juice production: Pectinase plays a vital role in juice production, bringing significant quality improvements to the juice industry by improving juice extraction rate and clarity.
2. Food additives: In the processing of jams, jelly, dairy products and other foods, the application of pectinase makes the products taste better and have a more delicate texture, satisfying consumers' dual needs for deliciousness and health.
3. Textile industry: Pectinase is used in the textile industry to treat fiber materials such as cotton, linen, and wool to make them softer, glossier, and easier to process, bringing new development opportunities to the textile industry.
4. Biological research: Pectinase is used in biological research to destroy cell walls and release intracellular substances, providing a powerful tool and support for biological experiments.
