Our Papain
Papain with high proteolytic activity is produced from the latex of carica papaya(papaya fruit). Papain being plant based protease is vegetarian and vegan. We work with farmers directly through contract farming to source quality latex for our production. Our Papain is produced by filtration and spray drying process with latest technology in a sterile environment. We produce two forms of papain i.e. stabilized liquid papain(SLP) and ultra-refined papain powder(URPP) with various activity as per our customer requirements.
Where is papain Used ?
Papain being a plant based protease hydrolyses proteins in to smaller peptides and amino acids. Papain is used in chill proofing and clarifying beer and several other applications as below
- Brewery – Beer chill proofing/clarifying
- Food – Meat tenderizing
- Pharma – As digestive enzyme
- Baking – Wheat gluten protein modification
- Feed – Animal/Poultry feed, Pet food palatability
- Protein processing – Protein hydrolysis
- Cosmetics – Toothpaste, Skin care products
Applications
Papain being a natural plant based protease is used for several applications
In brewing, papain is used to digest excess proteins after fermentation there by controlling chill haze and foam. The enzyme is capable of digesting dissolved proteins with amino acids as a by-product and thus increasing the clarity of beer. It is suitable for chill proofing in brewing and other applications in the food industry.
Tenderness is the most preferred physical quality of a meat product. Papain a proteolytic enzyme is used as meat tenderizer. The main ingredient of most powdered tenderizers is papain. Papain protease enzyme attack the muscle fibers and the collagen webs that holds them together. This softens the meat and makes it more tender.
Papain allows pets to easily absorb food nutrition, reduces allergies in pets, improves the palatability of the feed product. Papain as a proteolytic enzyme reduces the digestive load on the animal’s gastrointestinal tract and helps in absorption rate of nutrients. Papain has a significant effect on body weight, FCR and carcass percentage of poultry.
