AGP 120 Atténuation - Endozym

Composition:

Endozym AGP 120 is a blend prepared by the controlled fermentation of fungal and bacterial strains:

• 
  - Amyloglucosidase, which completely degrades the alpha-1,4 and alpha-1,6 glycosidic bonds of starch, dextrins, and oligosaccharides into fermentable sugars
• 
  - Alpha-amylase, which hydrolyzes the alpha-1,4-glucosidic bond of starch into dextrins to produce large quantities of oligosaccharides, maltotriose, and maltose.

Contains a secondary activity of:

• - Pullulanase, which is a debranching enzyme that hydrolyzes the alpha-1,6 glycosidic bonds of amylopectin in liquefied starch to produce oligosaccharides.

Endozym AGP 120 is standardized to contain:

• minimum 1,000 FAU/g, minimum 200 AMG/g. Analytical methods for the determination of FAU (Amylase Unit), AMG/g (Amyloglucosidase Unit), and PLU/g are available upon request.

Use and Dosage:

Endozym AGP 120 is a brown liquid preparation with a density of 1.20-1.30 g/mL.

Optimal process range:

• Temperature 10-20°C
• pH 4.0-5.5

Use 3-10 g/hL at the start of fermentation. However, the optimal dosage depends on the composition of the raw materials and specific process parameters (temperature, fermentation, etc.).

Storage and Packaging:

Endozym AGP 120 is a very stable preparation; preferably stored at temperatures below 10°C. It is a preparation normally used in food processing. It meets the requirements of WHO, FAO, ECFA, and FCC regarding enzymes for food use.
