pectolytic enzyme
Usage examples
  • Pectolytic enzymes are widely used in fruit winemaking to reduce haze and increase juice yield by breaking down complex pectins.
pectinase
Usage examples
  • Pectinases can be extracted from fungi such as Aspergillus niger. The fungus produces these enzymes to break down the middle lamella in plants so that it can extract nutrients from the plant tissues and insert fungal hyphae. If pectinase is boiled it is denatured (unfolded) making it harder to connect with the pectin at the active site, and produce as much juice.
