Creative Enzymes, a professional enzymes provider located in New York, USA, always hammers at researches and trials in order to provide customers with various enzymes services as many as possible. Last week, the product manager of Creative Enzymes announced that the company has introduced lactase for use in lactose-free and sugar-reduced dairy products.
Lactase, also known as β-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23), catalyzes the hydrolysis of lactose to produce glucose and galactose. Lactase is a non-toxic biological enzyme preparation that has been identified as a safe substance by the FDA and other regulatory authorities, allowing the use in food industrial production.
More and more consumers are looking for healthier dairy products, including products with higher dietary fiber content, to meet the daily intake of dietary fiber and improve overall intestinal health and digestibility. Using the lactase developed by Creative Enzymes, dairy companies can adjust the sugar, dietary fiber and lactose content of their flavored milk, ice cream, fermented dairy products and other dairy products.
Creative Enzymes announced the launch of a new type of lactase for the production of lactose-free sugar-reduced dairy products to meet the growing consumer demand for lactose-free foods. The lactase can be used in milk, milk beverages, yogurt and various organic dairy products.
“Developing new products for a biotechnological company is really important for its development among this industry. Although we have introduced many products into the market, we can guarantee their quality and practical use. And we will always improve ourselves.” said the Senior Scientist of Creative Enzymes.
Creative Enzymes claims that the newly released lactase can break down lactose into a sweeter form, which can help products reduce sugar by up to 20%. At the same time, the enzyme can also reduce the hydrolysis time by 33%, helping to optimize production efficiency. This type of lactase does not contain invertase and arylsulfatase. It has been reported that these two enzymes can produce off-flavors and reduce the stability of dairy products during the shelf life.
“The lactase developed by Creative Enzymes is an innovative enzyme solution that can help meet the nutritional challenges of a variety of dairy products, enabling dairy companies to use lactose in dairy products to naturally produce dietary fiber in the form of galactooligosaccharides. Galactooligosaccharides have also been proven to multiply the number of beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract, so it has great potential for prebiotic innovation and improving intestinal health.” Commented the product manager of Creative Enzymes.
