GENOFOCUS Lactase

GENOFOCUS Lactase is a neutral lactase (EC 3.2.1.23) preparation derived from Bacillus circulans. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of lactose and the galactosyl transfer reaction. In the galactosyl transfer reaction, it is advantageous to react at high temperature because of the low solubility of lactose. GOS is primarily used for main ingredient of premium powdered milk, and market needs of GOS addition amount is increasing annually by more than 20%. GOS is also used for dairy products, food and beverages, etc.

GENOFOCUS Lactase - Activity Test For Temperature And Ph

 

pH Activity

GENOFOCUS Lactase - Activity Test For Temperature And Ph - 1

 

Recommendation of Operational Condition
  • Stable pH range: pH 5.5 ~ 7.5
  • Optimum pH: pH 6.0
  • Temperature stability: stable under 50 ℃
  • Optimum temperature: 50 ℃
Conversion Rate Comparison
  • When compared with competitor’s enzyme, production yield for GOS is similar and composition rate of remaining lactose is lower.
  • Both Lactazyme-BTMand competitor’s lactase produce GOS in 58~65% yields from 50% lactose solution, and less than 10% of lactose remains after reaction.
