Description

Ec 3.1.1.3 CAS NO 9014-49-7 is a high-purity lipase enzyme preparation, a critical biocatalyst that facilitates the hydrolysis of ester bonds in fats and lipids. This product is essential for industries requiring precise and efficient lipid modification, offering consistent activity and purity for reproducible results. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the food processing, biofuel, detergent, and pharmaceutical sectors for applications ranging from flavor development to biodiesel production.

Application

• Food & Beverage Processing: Used for flavor enhancement in cheese and dairy products, interesterification of oils and fats to modify texture, and improving dough handling in baking.
• Biofuel Production: Acts as a biocatalyst in the enzymatic transesterification of triglycerides for the synthesis of biodiesel, offering a greener alternative to chemical catalysts.
• Detergent & Cleaning Formulations: Incorporated into laundry and dishwashing detergents to break down lipid-based stains and greases at lower temperatures.
• Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical Synthesis: Employed in the regioselective synthesis of chiral intermediates and the modification of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Aids in pitch control by hydrolyzing triglyceride-based wood resins that can interfere with paper production.
• Leather Processing: Used in the degreasing of hides and skins to prepare leather, improving its quality and softness.
• Waste Management: Applied in bioremediation processes and grease trap treatments to degrade fats, oils, and greases (FOG).
• Diagnostic & Analytical Kits: Serves as a key reagent in clinical diagnostic kits for the quantitative determination of triglycerides in serum.
