Invertase

Product Overview:  

Invertase, also known as sucrase or β-fructofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.26), is derived from Aspergillus oryzae and produced through liquid deep fermentation and refined extraction. This product serves as a food enzyme preparation and can be used as a food additive, ingredient, or biocatalyst in industries such as food, beverages, alcohol fermentation, pharmaceutical preparations, and wastewater treatment.  

Mechanism of Action:  

Specifically hydrolyzes the β-fructofuranoside bond in non-reducing sugars, catalyzing the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose.  

Product Characteristics:  

Applications:  

Invertase is used to hydrolyze sucrose, producing invert syrup with a 1:1 ratio of glucose and fructose. It inhibits sucrose crystallization, enhances sweetness, and improves the texture, flavor, and color of food products.  

• In confectionery: Improves flavor, color, and product stability.  

• In baked goods: Acts as a preservative to maintain freshness and as a humectant to improve moldability and reduce stickiness.  

Key Benefits of Invertase

Enhanced Sweetness & Flavor

Invert sugar is sweeter than sucrose, improving taste profiles in food and beverages.

Anti-Crystallization Properties

Prevents sugar crystallization in confectionery products like fondants and chocolates.

Improved Shelf Life

Maintains moisture and texture, extending product freshness.

Process Efficiency

Speeds up sugar conversion in fermentation and industrial processes.

Usage:  

• Add 350 g of invertase to 1 ton of sucrose syrup (70%, 50°C) for complete hydrolysis within 6 hours.  

• For cost efficiency, add 150 g of invertase to 1 ton of sucrose syrup (70%, 50°C) for hydrolysis within 12 hours.
