Use of Enzymes in Food Industry - Food industry utilizes a variety of enzymes for processing of various foods‚ e.g.‚ production of various types of syrups from starch or sucrose (a- and β- amylases‚ glucamylase‚ pullulanase‚ invertase‚ and glucose isomerase)‚ meat/protein processing using proteases‚ removal of glucose and or molecular oxygen (O2) using glucose oxidase and catalase‚ use of lactase in dairy industry and use of enzymes in fruit juice and brewing industries. Glucose oxides are obtained

still the most important detergent enzymes. Lipases decompose fats into more water-soluble compounds. Amylases are used in detergents to remove starch based stains. 2. Starch hydrolysis and fructose production The use of starch degrading enzymes was the first large scale application of microbial enzymes in food industry. Mainly two enzymes carry out conversion of starch to glucose: alpha-amylase and fungal enzymes. Fructose produced from sucrose as a starting material. Sucrose is split by invertase

function of this particular enzyme is to breakdown starch and produce maltose. Each alpha-amylase functions best at an optimal temperature and pH‚ producing a larger amount of maltose in their preferred environment. This was a good way of identifying the unknown enzymes because temperature and pH are major factors in changing an enzymes shape/structure‚ which ultimately affects the enzyme’s function.

by adding Benedict’s solution and heating it‚ there would be a color change if a reducing sugar is present‚ or it will remain blue (no reducing sugar). The objective of the Starch test was to test for starch in substances by using Iodine. The iodine will cause a substance to turn to a dark blue color if it is positive for starch. The objective for the Dye test was to test for lipids. When mixed with water and the tested substance‚ a positive result will occur in it being separated from the water. The

Explain the different types of nutrients a. organic vs. inorganic Organic – contains carbon Inorganic- do not contain carbon b. macronutrient vs. micronutrient Macronutrient- “large” provide E/ fuel to our bodies Carbs‚ lipids‚ and protein Micronutrient- regulate body processes; supports immune

enzymes‚ chemicals that speed up reactions involved in the breakdown of food. The stomach and the small intestines‚ which are parts of the alimentary canal‚ each produce a digestive juice. Other digestive juices empty into the alimentary canal from the salivary glands‚ gall bladder‚ and pancreas. These organs are also part of the digestive system.
