LIQUESTAR
LiqueStar is a food grade heat stable endo-alpha-amylase enzyme [3.2.1.1] made from the refined strain through liquid submerged fermentation.
LiqueStar has excellent heat resistance and adaptability over a wide pH range. It is applied broadly for liquefaction by producing soluble dextrins and small amount of maltose and glucose from starch in the industry of fuel ethanol, distillery, starch sweetener and beer.
FUNCTION PRINCIPLE
It rapidly and randomly hydrolyze 1,4 α-D-glucose bonds of the starch chains with release of mainly dextrin and small amount of glucose and maltose, so as to reduce the viscosity of the mash and liquefy the starch.
PERFORMANCE CONDITIONS
Working pH range 4.5-7.0, optimum 5.0-6.0;Temperature 60-105°C, favorable 85-90°C
DOSAGE GUIDELINE
0.1-0.25kg of LiqueStar per ton of dry grain material. (Dosage optimization should be performed based on individual plant.)
