saccharification
How We Help
OPTIMAX® saccharification enzyme blends convert soluble dextrins to maximum glucose yields, while added filtration enzymes improve purification for the resulting syrups. These enzyme blends effectively reduce costs by maximizing solid levels without compromising dextrose yields.
Key Benefits and Applications
Consisting of glucoamylases, pullulanases, and sometimes lysophospholipases, these enzyme blends are optimized to convert liquefied starch to glucose and ensure excellent purification of the resulting syrups.
| PRODUCT | APPLICATIONS | DP1 | SACCHARIFICATION TIME | SACCHARIFICATION TEMP | DS RANGE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OPTIMAX® 4060 VHP | Helps meet production demands, offering flexibility in enzyme dosage without additional capital costs. | 95.5% | 48 to 65 hours | 140ºF (60ºC) | 29 to 36% |
| OPTIMAX® GMAX+ | Supports manufacturing at higher solid levels to increase plant capacity, reduce water and energy consumption—while still matching glucose targets for conventional syrups.
When maximum DP1 is required, OPTIMAX® GMAX+ provides a significantly higher DP1 level than other glucoamylase blends. |
