Enzymes for Research, Diagnostic and Industrial Use

Blend of polygalacturonase and pectate lyase

Cat No.
EXTZ-919
Description
This product is a liquid enzyme blend of polygalacturonase and pectate lyase with supplementary hemicellulase and arabinanase side activities, produced by controlled fermentation. Polygalacturonase (EC 3.2.1.15) cleaves the alpha-1,4-glycosidic bonds of demethylated pectin by hydrolysis, while pectate lyase (EC 4.2.2.2) cleaves the pectin backbone by trans-elimination, generating unsaturated oligogalacturonates. Acting together, the two activities rapidly depolymerize high-methoxyl and low-methoxyl pectins from diverse fruit and vegetable raw materials. The blend is formulated for mash treatment and depectinization in juice and concentrate production, where it increases juice yield and color extraction, reduces viscosity, and improves clarification and light transmittance. It shows an optimum pH of 3.0-4.5 and a working temperature of 50-55°C, remaining effective at temperatures up to 60°C, which shortens processing times.
