Alpha Amylase

Nutrizyme (low-temperature α-amylase) [EC 3.2.1.1] is produced from a strain of Bacillus subtilis using fermentation and extraction technology. This enzyme efficiently catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch. By targeting random points along the starch chain, α-amylase breaks down long-chain carbohydrates into maltotriose and maltose from amylose, and into maltose, glucose, and "limit dextrin" from amylopectin. Compared to β-amylase, α-amylase acts more rapidly. It plays a crucial role in animal digestion, with an optimal pH of 6.0.
