amylase enzyme baking are used in bread processing to increase the volume of bread

   Fungal α-amylase, produced through fermentation by Aspergillus oryzae, belongs to the endo-amylase category. It hydrolyzes starch to generate maltose and oligosaccharides. It can decompose damaged starch in flour, providing fermentable sugars for yeast, enhancing the gas-producing ability of dough, increasing the volume of bread and Mantou, improving the texture fineness of the structure, and delaying aging and retrogradation. Additionally, it can be applied in the production of high-maltose syrup and beer brewing.

1. Enzyme preparations are bioactive substances that are susceptible to the inhibitory and destructive effects of heavy metal ions (Fe3+, Cu2+, Hg+, Pb+, etc.) and oxidants. Contact with them should be avoided during use and storage;

2. For people who are easily sensitive, it may cause hypersensitivity reactions; Close contact or slight inhalation may irritate the skin, eyes, and mucosal tissues; During the use of enzyme products, it is recommended to wear protective equipment such as masks and eye masks.

3. Moisture proof, light proof, sealed and stored at low temperature (0-10 ° C) for 18 months. Enzymes experience a certain loss of enzyme activity during storage, with 5-10% loss of enzyme activity at 10 ° C for 6 months and 10-15% loss of enzyme activity at room temperature for 6 months.

4. Extending the storage period or being affected by harsh storage conditions such as high temperature and humidity can lead to an increase in usage.
