Sugar Enzymes (Promodex)

Sugar Enzymes are widely applied in Sugar Industries and Alcohol Industries. Promodex is produced by the controlled fermentation of dextrin using Non GMO fungal strains. Promodex does not require any activators or cofactors for its activity. Its activity is inhibited by metal ions such as copper and mercury. Temperature higher than 900C for duration of more than 10 minutes inactivates promodex. Sugar Enzymes which we offer complies with the current recommended purity specifications for food-grade enzymes given by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA). We provide these Enzymes in sealed containers under cool & dry conditions. Promodex should be used within 3 months, beyond which it loses its activity, which accelerates if the storage conditions are not proper.

Safety: Contact or Inhalation of enzymes in any form may cause allergic reactions and should be avoided. In case of contact with the skin or eyes, immediately rinse with water for at least 15 minutes. Please refer Material Safety Data Sheet (available on request) for all safety instructions
