Technical Details & Test Data

Enzyme System for the Production of Bee Food
  • Production of bee food with optimum characteristics
  • Reliable and cost effective conversion of sucrose
  • Specific sugar composition achievable
  • No unwanted color formation or by-products

There are times when the beekeeper needs to rely on artificial honey, for instance for facilitating the survival of bees during the winter or for forage gap feeding. Ideally, such a bee food syrup should feature a specific sugar composition (one third sucrose should remain, meaning roughly 70% inversion), a neutral color and the absence of unwanted by-products. Sweetase 200 P enables the reliable and controlled hydrolysis of sucrose while avoiding the formation of harmful by-products. This way, bee food with the optimum characteristics can be produced.

 

Bee Food

Sweetase 200 P catalyzes the inversion of sucrose to equal parts of fructose and glucose. It originates from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By adjusting the enzyme dosage and/or the reaction time, the inversion of sucrose can be precisely adjusted (see Fig. 1).

Sweetase 200 P - Enzyme System For The Production of Bee Food - 1

 

1. A 66 % (w/v) sucrose solutions is the starting material for the sucrose inversion. After the complete dissolution of sucrose, the pH is adjusted to a value of 5.

2. Prepare a 10 % enzyme solution. Thus, 0.1 kg Sweetase 200 P is filled up with water to a total amount of 1 kg.

3. To this syrup, add 1 g of the 10 % - Sweetase 200 P solution per kg syrup is added. This corresponds to 20.000 Sumner Units.

4. Stirring continuously, heat the syrup to 60 °C. This temperature is then kept for 1 hour, as an example, to obtain an inversion of roughly 70 % (see Fig. 1 above).

5. Afterwards, the enzyme is inactivated by increasing the temperature to 95 °C for 10 minutes.

Enzyme System for the Production of Invert Sugar Syrup
  • Reliable and cost effective conversion of sucrose
  • Higher sweetening power Improved taste
  • Longer shelf-life of food products
  • No unwanted color formation or by-products

Invert sugar syrup is popularly used in the confectionary and baking industry. The resulting syrup, containing equal parts of glucose and fructose, has superior properties compared to glucose or sucrose syrups. Invert sugar syrup is known for a higher sweetening power as well as a mild and fruity taste. Besides, the shelf-life of the final products (such as confectionary, cream fillings, pastries) is increased. Sweetase 200 P provides a reliable and cost-efficient inversion of sucrose without the formation of any by-products.

Sweetase 200 P catalyzes the inversion of sucrose to equal parts of fructose and glucose. It originates from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By adjusting the enzyme dosage and/or the reaction time, the inversion of sucrose can be maximized (see Fig. 1).

3. To this sugar syrup, an amount of 2 g of the 10% - Sweetase 200 P solution per kg syrup is added. This corresponds to 40.000 Sumner-Units.

4. Under continuous stirring, the syrup is heated up to 60°C. This temperature is then kept for 3 hours to obtain an inversion of 100% (see Fig. 1 above).

5. Afterwards, the enzyme is inactivated by increasing the temperature to 95°C for 10 minutes.
