Description

Mannozym CAS NO 68652-43-7 is a specialized enzyme preparation derived from microbial fermentation, primarily known for its mannanase activity. This product is critical for industrial processes requiring the targeted hydrolysis of mannan-based polysaccharides, such as galactomannans and glucomannans, into smaller, more usable sugars. It is an essential biocatalyst for manufacturers in the food processing, animal feed, and biofuel industries seeking to improve yield, efficiency, and product quality.

Application

• Animal Feed Additive: Enhances the digestibility of feed containing guar meal, soybean meal, or other mannan-rich ingredients by breaking down anti-nutritional factors, improving nutrient absorption and animal performance.
• Food & Beverage Processing: Used in the production of fruit juices, coffee extracts, and konjac flour to reduce viscosity, improve clarification, and increase yield by degrading mannan gums.
• Biofuel Production: Aids in the enzymatic saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass (e.g., softwoods) for bioethanol production by hydrolyzing hemicellulose components like galactoglucomannans.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Applied in biobleaching and refining processes to selectively modify or remove hemicellulose from pulp, reducing chemical usage and improving pulp properties.
• Textile Processing: Facilitates the bioscouring of cotton and other natural fibers by assisting in the removal of seed coat fragments and impurities containing mannans.
• Detergent Formulations: Incorporated into laundry and dishwashing detergents as a stain-removing enzyme, effective on food stains containing guar gum or locust bean gum.
