- Working Mechanism
Transglutaminase, abbreviated as TG enzyme, is a polymerase that catalyzes intramolecular or intermolecular ligation of proteins. It can catalyze the Ilink between E-amino on lysine residue and Y-hydroxy amide group on glutamine residue. This linkage has a significant effect on the properties of the protein, gelling ability. thermal stability and water holding capacity, thereby improving the structural and functional properties of the protein, giving the food protein a unique texture and mouthfeel.
- Application Guide
- In the meat processing industry (intestines. meatbal ls, sur imi, minced meat. bacon), it has the advantages of improving elasticity, yield and taste. The recommended dosage: 0.1% - 1%.
- In the dairy processing industry: it can increase water holding capacity of the yogurt and replace some stabilizers; when used in the production of cheese, it can increase the hardness and strength of the cheese and also the yield. The recommended dosage: 0.05%-0.2%.
- In the vegetable protein processing industry (Chiba Tofu, Lactone Tofu, Prote in Powder), it gives the product a unique taste, and improves emulsification and gelation. The recommended dosage: 0.1%- 0.4%.
- In the flour process ing industry: it can improve the internal structure of the dough and improve the elasticity and boiling resistance of the noodles. The recommended dosage: 0.1-0.45. All dosage based on substrate quality, enzyme activity is 100 u/g.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Specifications
- The effect of enzymes is affected by temperature and time, within the effective temperature, the reaction time is less when the temperature is high, while the reaction time will be more under low temperature circumstance which can slow down the reaction rate.
