Product Description
Alpha Amylase is a hydrolytic enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of starch into smaller carbohydrates such as dextrins, maltose, and glucose. It is typically available as an off-white to light brown powder or amber-colored liquid, depending on the formulation and intended application. Commercially, alpha amylase is primarily produced through microbial fermentation using strains of Bacillus licheniformis , Bacillus amyloliquefaciens , and Aspergillus oryzae . Following fermentation, the enzyme is purified, concentrated, stabilized, and formulated into powder or liquid products.
Alpha amylase is widely used across multiple industries. In the food and beverage sector, it improves dough handling, bread quality, brewing efficiency, and starch syrup production. It is extensively used in animal feed to enhance nutrient digestibility, while the textile industry utilizes it for desizing fabrics. The paper and pulp sector employs alpha amylase to modify starch for improved paper coating and strength. It also finds applications in detergents for starch stain removal, bioethanol production, and pharmaceutical formulations.
