Product Introduction
β-mannanase is an enzyme that acts on β-mannan polysaccharides. These polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates found in various plant materials. This enzyme helps in breaking down these structures, improving the nutritional value of feeds and foods.
Production Process
The production of β-mannanase usually involves microbial fermentation. Specific microorganisms are cultivated under controlled conditions to produce the enzyme. After fermentation, the enzyme is extracted and purified to ensure its activity and effectiveness are preserved.
Effects and Functions
β-mannanase is crucial for enhancing the digestibility of feed. By breaking down β-mannans, it allows for better absorption of nutrients in both animals and humans. The enzyme can also contribute to reducing intestinal viscosity, which can lead to improved growth rates and health in livestock.
Application Scenarios
In the animal feed industry, β-mannanase is used to enhance the digestibility of feed ingredients, especially those rich in mannans, like soy and guar meals. In food processing, it can improve the texture and yield of products. Biotechnology applications also benefit from this enzyme for various bioconversion processes.
Packaging and Storage
Storage Conditions: The product should be sealed, protected from light, kept away from high temperatures, and stored in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated place.
Packaging: Bulk packaging consists of 25 kg per fiber drum, while samples are available in 1 kg per aluminum foil bag. Custom packaging options are available upon request.
Shipping Methods: Shipping can be done through FedEx, DHL, dedicated logistics, and sea freight consolidation.
Shelf Life: The enzyme has a two-year shelf life, provided proper storage conditions are maintained.
