- Ingredient Name:Trypsin
- Functions:Enzyme, Protein Source
- Physical Form:Powder, Solid
TRYPSIN VI is a serine protease complex, containing trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4) and chymotrypsin(EC 3.4.21.1), obtained from the porcine pancreas by Neova Technologies Inc. The serine protease complex is intended to be used for hydrolysis of whey proteins employed as ingredients of infant formulae and follow-on formulae. Trypsin and chymotrypsin’s primary function in the human body is the digestion of proteins. These naturally occurring pancreatic proteins play an important role in the digestion of food in the human body. This functional property makes them effective when used in food applications for the purpose of hydrolyzing proteins.
