Lipomod® 4MDP is a unique microbial lipase with high specificity towards the release of short chain fatty acids (high release of butyric and caproic acid).LO04MDP releases short chain tatty acids from fat substrates, with particular effectiveness on dairy fats, to produce sharp mature cheese and dairy flavor notes. LO04MDP delivers a new flavor opportunity in Enzyme Modified Dairy Ingredients (EMD) producing a well-rounded and balanced mature cheese flavor. LO04MDP can be used on its own or as a top up to another lipase or protease to produce your desired flavor. flavor.

Lipomod® 691MDP is a mixed fungal lipase. It's fatty acid profile produces rounded cream notes. Since it is a non-animal product Lipomod® 691MDP is suitable for vegetarian and kosher products. If protein notes are required Promod® 215P can be used with Lipomod® 691MDP.

Flavorpro® 373MDP is a microbially derived endoprotease preparation suitable for soya, wheat and vegetable hydrolysis. Its high level of glutaminase side activity produces a savory type flavor, as well as improving the solubility and digestibility of the proteins.

Promod® 24L is a broad spectrum protease for use in the mild acid to neutral pH range. Since it is microbial in origin it is suitable for use in vegetarian products and is a good replacement for pancreatic proteases. It has good synergy with plant proteases and also contains glucanase side activity.

Promod® 523MDP can be used to hydrolyse whey protein to produce a highly digestible whey protein hydrolysate that is suitable for use in infant formula. It can be used to efficiently hydrolyse beta-lactoglobulin. It is a non-animal product and therefore is suitable for products destined for Halal, Kosher and vegetarian markets.

Flavorpro® Umami is used for the manufacture of EMCs where strong mature and mouth filling savory protein notes are required. Flavorpro® Umami can be used on its own or in combination with Biocatalysts' dairy lipases (Lipomod® products). Flavorpro® Umami is an exopeptidase with endopeptidase and glutaminase side activities. It releases a high level of glutamic acid, an amino acid giving strong Umami flavor commonly found in fermented or aged food. Umami heightens the flavor profile which helps increase the apparent saltiness in EMC, as confirmed by external sensory analysis. EMC made with Flavorpro® Umami can therefore be used for salt reduction in processed cheese applications.

Lipomod® 801MDP is a mixed fungal lipase with carefully selected low level of protease activity. It is a microbial alternative to porcine pancreatic lipase. Since it is a non-animal product Lipomod® 801MDP is suitable for vegetarian, kosher and halal products. It has been specifically designed to match the flavor profile of pancreatin lipase, characterized by: intense free fatty acid flavor with some sweaty, brothy and sulfur undertone notes.

Flavorpro® 766MDP contains both endopeptidase and exopeptidase activities. It can be used to hydrolyse a wide variety of vegetable and animal protein substrates. This enzyme can be used to produce a highly digestible protein hydrolysate with a high degree of hydrolysis and low bitterness.

Flavorpro® 937MDP is an exopeptidase preparation from a fungal source with low levels of endopeptidase activity. In EMC application, Flavorpro® 937MDP is useful for its debittering action. It removes the excessive bitterness that can be produced when using animal and bacterial proteases. Since it is a non-animal product Flavorpro® 937MDP is suitable for vegetarian and kosher products.

Lipomod® 768MDP is a mixed fungal lipase. It is active against all 3 positions on triacylglycerol substrates (fat); hydrolysing short, medium, and long chain fatty acids. It produces a free fatty acid profile with subtle sweet undertones. Since it is a non-animal product it is useful for vegetarian and kosher products. Lipases hydrolyse triglycerides to liberate free fatty acids (FFA). These enzymes are widespread throughout nature, and they possess different activities and specificities towards triacylglycerol substrates (fat). The free fatty acid profile (amount and type of FFA) contributes to the difference in flavor from one cheese to another. For Enzyme Modified Cheese (EMC), lipases are used to produce specific concentrated flavors. Lipomod® 768MDP can be suitable for use in other flavor applications.

Catalase 929L will supply enzymes that modify the functionality of egg and can therefore be used as an aid to egg processing. During processing eggs are pasteurized to eliminate the possible presence of harmful bacteria. Egg white proteins area particularly susceptible to damage by pasteurization and to lessen this damage an alternative process using a combination of lower temperatures and hydrogen peroxide can be used. Residual hydrogen peroxide needs to be eliminated from the egg product with Catalase, which breaks down hydrogen peroxide into harmless by-products.

Biocatalysts Ltd Phenylalaninedehydrogenase 98P is a neonatal screening enzyme used to detect Phenylketonuria (PKU). This sensitive enzyme test is cheaper and more rapid that the traditional Guthrie microbial test. Low cross reactivity also results in lower false positives than the Guthrie and fluorometric methods.
