A microbial endopeptidase preparation with broad substrate specificity for processing extracted collagen and gelatin. This enzyme can be used to efficiently hydrolyse beef, pork and fish extracted collagen and gelatin to increase solubility, reduce viscosity and produce lower molecular weight peptides. Promod® 128L has been designed specifically with a unique combination of peptidase activities to achieve a high degree of hydrolysis of collagenous material.
How Enzymes Enhance Collagen: A Closer Look at Functionality and Processing
Discover how enzymes unlock collagen’s true potential in food and beverage innovation. This blog reveals how enzymatic hydrolysis turns tough, insoluble collagen into smooth, bioavailable peptides perfect for functional nutrition.
You’ve seen it in beauty serums, smoothie powders, even joint supplements. But what is collagen, why does your body need it, and how does it actually work? it’s not just the collagen that matters, it’s what enzymes do to it.
Enzymatic Hydrolysis for the Production of Collagen Peptides
Collagen is an extremely functional and valuable protein, with many perceived health benefits. The functionality of collagen can be further enhanced through hydrolysis by action of proteolytic enzymes for use in a wide number of applications.
