Proteases for plant protein hydrolysate
Enzymes
Information
For stronger umami flavor - Protease AN “AMANO” 100SD and Glutaminase SD-C100S produce plant protein hydrolysates with high glutamic acid content. Protease AN “AMANO” 100SD, with its high hydrolysis power, produces more glutamine from wheat gluten and soy protein. At the same time, Glutaminase SD-C100S efficiently converts glutamine to glutamic acid to produce plant protein hydrolysates with a stronger umami taste.
For salt reduction - When producing plant protein hydrolysates through enzymatic degradation, there is a risk of bacterial contamination as a neutral pH condition is required over the long processing time. High amounts of salt are typically added to prevent microbial growth, but this results in a high salt product. Protease HF “AMANO” 150SD, performs well under acidic conditions, reducing the need for added salt to inhibit bacterial contamination.
