Introduction: we all know that many foods we eat contain ingredients of food additives, and enzyme is a kind of adjuvant of food additives So, which foods are enzyme used in? What are the functions of enzyme? Let's answer these two questions Enzyme is a kind of special protein produced by living cells, which has high catalytic function, high specificity and high control At present, there are more than 2000 known enzymes in the world Enzyme products with enzyme activity extracted from animals, plants or microbial organisms are called enzyme preparations Food enzyme preparation is a kind of biological enzyme preparation which is produced as food processing assistant according to the requirements of food additive hygienic standard, enzyme preparation production environment and equipment by the source bacteria meeting the requirements of food additive GB2760 When food enzyme is added to food as food additive, it only plays a role in the process of processing, that is to say, it helps a substance to complete a transformation, and once it completes its mission, it will succeed and lose its vitality in the final product No harmful residues in food Food enzyme preparation is playing a more and more important role in food production and people's life because of its unique catalytic characteristics, fast catalytic speed, natural environmental protection and other characteristics There are 6 kinds of papain, α - amylase preparation, refined pectinase and β - glucoamylase approved in China Enzyme preparation comes from biology, generally speaking, it is relatively safe and can be used appropriately according to production needs Next, we will introduce to you what kind of food enzyme preparation is used in 1 Starch sugar food starch sugar is one of the fastest growing industries, there are many new varieties At present, the varieties of enzyme preparation are glucose syrup, fructose syrup, maltodextrin, high maltose and other traditional products 2 In the baking process of baked food, amylase can increase the dough volume, improve the skin color and crisp structure, improve and prevent the spoilage, protease can improve the characteristics of gluten, reduce the viscosity, reduce the energy consumption and cost In the production of bread and biscuit pastry, the corresponding enzyme preparation can be selected according to the different requirements of the product to make the dough more full of fermentation, The effect is better 3 Beer is one of the first brewing products using enzymes Protease can degrade the protein components of beer, prevent the cold turbidity of beer and prolong the storage period of beer; glucoamylase can degrade the residual dextrin in beer, not only ensure the highest ethanol content in beer, but also increase the sugar content; pectinase is the most important enzyme in fruit processing, the application of Pectinase in the treatment of broken fruit can accelerate the filtration of juice, promote clarification, etc 4 Dairy industry dairy products are the most nutritious and balanced full price food except breast milk, which contain all the necessary nutrients for human body Due to the lack of lactase in human body, some people often have diarrhea, abdominal pain and other adverse symptoms after drinking milk Therefore, lactase shows its unique function It can hydrolyze lactose to galactose and glucose The flavor of cheese and butter can be increased by adding lipase to dairy products 5 In the processing of aquatic products, gelatinase or pepsin can effectively speed up the scale removal Moreover, enzyme technology can also shorten the production time of fish seasoning and eliminate the peculiar smell in fish meat Enzyme technology is mainly used to extract chitin in the processing of shrimp and crab, and it is mainly used to hydrolyze algae to improve the quality of active substances and algae products 6 Meat processing enzymes are mainly used to tenderize meat in meat processing The main function of protease tenderizing meat is to decompose the collagen protein of muscle connective tissue and promote tenderization What is the function of enzyme preparation? Enzyme preparation has been widely used in food processing, replacing some traditional food additives and improving some food toxicity We must strictly control the dosage of food enzyme preparation, neither too much nor too little You can learn some food safety knowledge about enzyme preparation, and you can also use food safety detector, which is very helpful for us to understand enzyme preparation correctly Editor in charge: he xianrob
