Thermostable α-Amylase for Efficient Starch Liquefaction

Our Thermostable α-Amylase is a high-performance enzyme engineered for efficient starch liquefaction under extreme process conditions. It rapidly hydrolyzes gelatinized starch into dextrins, enabling smoother downstream saccharification and fermentation steps.

Designed to withstand elevated temperatures and pH variations, this enzyme ensures consistent viscosity reduction, higher yield, and optimized process efficiency — even in continuous, high-gravity starch-to-ethanol systems.

Key Benefits

  • Exceptional Thermal Stability: Performs efficiently at temperatures up to 105°C.

  • Rapid Liquefaction: Quickly breaks down starch for improved flow and mixing.

  • Enhanced Process Efficiency: Reduces energy and processing time.

  • Broad Substrate Compatibility: Works effectively with corn, sorghum, wheat, and cassava starch.

  • Improved Fermentable Sugar Yield: Maximizes conversion for higher ethanol output.

  • Stable Across pH Range: Suitable for a wide range of industrial conditions.

Applications

  • Starch Liquefaction in Ethanol Production

  • Brewing and Distilling

  • Starch-Based Sweeteners Manufacturing

  • Textile Desizing and Paper Processing
