Description

Biolaxi Enzymes is a leading enzyme manufacturer and supplier in India since 2007, offering a diverse portfolio of high-performance enzymes, including different types of amylases, specifically alpha-amylase (α-amylase) and beta-amylase (β-amylase), which have slightly different enzymatic activities. We source them from raw biological materials such as Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus spp., and barley. For the preparation of these enzymes, we use microbial fermentation or plant extraction, followed by purification techniques to yield high-quality formulations.

Alpha Amylase (α-Amylase)

Product Details:

Alpha amylase is an endo-acting enzyme that hydrolyzes internal α-1,4-glycosidic linkages in starch and glycogen, breaking them down into smaller sugar molecules such as maltose, maltotriose, and glucose. In biological systems, salivary and pancreatic alpha amylases initiate starch degradation, aiding in the breakdown of dietary carbohydrates.

Our alpha amylase rapidly reduces the viscosity of starch solutions by randomly cleaving internal bonds, significantly enhancing liquefaction processes. This makes it highly effective in applications such as fermentation, food processing, and other industrial operations requiring efficient starch conversion.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Rapid starch liquefaction for improved processing efficiency
• Broad temperature stability (60-90°C) for flexible applications
• Multiple formulation options for diverse industrial needs

Applications:

• Sweetener Production: Enables efficient starch conversion in glucose and HFCS manufacturing
• Baking: Enhances dough handling and crust quality
• Biofuel: Optimizes starch conversion in ethanol production
• Textiles: Effective desizing agent for starch-based coatings
• Paper: Improves starch coating uniformity

Usage Guidelines:

• Dosage: 0.1-0.5% (w/w) of starch substrate, depending on application.
• Process: Add during liquefaction stage; maintain pH 5.5-7.5 for optimal activity.

Storage Conditions:

• Liquid: Store at 4-25°C; avoid freezing. Stable for 6 months.
• Powder: Store in a dry place below 30°C. Stable for 12 months.

Beta Amylase (β-Amylase)

Product Details:

Beta amylase is an exo-acting enzyme that hydrolyzes starch by cleaving α-1,4-glycosidic bonds from the non-reducing ends of polysaccharide chains, releasing maltose units sequentially. Unlike alpha amylase, it does not act within the chain but works progressively from the ends.

Our beta amylase is available in both plant-based and microbial forms, ensuring consistent performance in processes requiring high maltose yields. It is widely used in brewing, baking, and other applications where precise starch-to-maltose conversion is essential.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Exceptional specificity for α-1,4 glycosidic bonds
• Produces high-purity maltose syrups
• Available in traditional and microbial formulations

Applications:

• Brewing: Enhances fermentable sugar profiles
• Confectionery: Produces stable, low-glucose syrups
• Bakery: Extends product freshness naturally

Usage Guidelines:

• Dosage: 0.05-0.3% (w/w) of starch substrate.
• Process: Use after liquefaction; incubate at 45-65°C for 1-2 hours.

Storage Conditions:

• Powder: Store in airtight containers below 25°C. Stable for 12 months.
