Pectinase 62L demonstrates excellent stability at low pH and is particularly suited for the processing of high-acidity fruit.

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.
