Ailazyme® PT is a pure and specific pectolytic enzyme preparation produced by fermentation of selected strains of Aspergillus niger. This product contains activities like pectin-lyase. This product was created specifically for depectinization and viscosity reduction in the fruit and vegetable processing industry, as well as improved pressing, clarification, and filtration. AILAZYME® PT primarily contains the specific pectin lyase activity required for pectin degradation without prior de-esterification. AILAZYME® PT is ideal for rapid viscosity reduction in fruit and vegetable processing. The use of AILAZYME® PT in citrus processing speeds up the process by rapidly reducing juice viscosity. AILAZYME® PT is recommended as a mash enzyme for belt presses in apple processing. In the production of fruit brandy, enzyme treatment improves fermentation without the formation of additional methanol. Treatment improves the yield of juice and coloring matter in carrot juice processing.
