High Concentration Acid Proteolytic Enzymes 600,000 U/g Powder
Acid Protease AP-6000
High Concentration Powder Protease
Halal and Kosher Certified
PRELIMINARY DESCRIPTION
Acid Protease AP-6000 is produced from strains of Aspergillusniger through submerged fermentation, extraction and refining processes. It can catalyze hydrolysis of plant and animal proteins under acidic conditions (pH 2.5∼4.0).
As a high concentration protease in powder form, AP-6000 has a wide application in food industries, including alcohol, fermentation and brewery, beer and wine production. AP-6000 is also suitable for leather processing, wool coloration and waste film recovery. This enzyme can be further processed into medical-grade protease as anti-inflammatory agents, digestion supplements, or protease reagents.

The optimal temperature range for AP-6000 is 30 to 50°C with 0.5% casein at pH around 3.0
AP-6000 is unstable above 50°C and will be inactivated quickly above 60°C. |
The enzyme activity of AP-6000 is activated by Mn2+, Ca2+ and Mg2+
The enzyme activity of AP-6000 is inhibited by Cu2+, Hg2+ and Al3+. |
APPLICATION AND BENEFITS
| Alcohol |
Use of AP-6000 in alcohol production from starch materials can speed up the fermentation and uplift yields of alcohol. |
| Food Industry |
Use of AP-6000 in food industry can help to increase amino acid content of food, thus improve flavors and qualities of bread, cookies, cakes and sausages. |
| Beer | Use of AP-600 in beer production can decrease the diacetyl content, thus shorten the brewing time. |
| Animal Feed | Use of AP-6000to hydrolyze proteins of animal feedstuff can help to maximize the utilization of feedstuff. |
| Leather Processing | AP-6000 Can be used to soften leather, enable easy dyeing, full hand-feel, improve leather and fur luster. |
STORAGE AND SHELF-LIFE
- Typical shelf-life is twelve months provided this product is stored at 0∼10°C in its original packaging, sealed and unopened, protected from direct sunlight. Prolonged storage and/or adverse conditions such as higher temperatures may lead to higher dosage requirement, therefore should be avoided.
