SEBstar-HTL Alpha Amylase Enzyme – 225ml

SEBstar-HTL Alpha Amylase Enzyme – 225ml

SEBstar HTL is a heat-stable, liquid alpha-amylase enzyme. It is produced by controlled fermentation of a non-GMO strain of Bacillus licheniformis.
This liquid enzyme is food-grade, Kosher Certified and can be used to produce certified-organic beverages.
SEBstar HTL is an endo-amylase that randomly hydrolyzes alpha- 1,4-glycosidic bonds in gelatinized starch.
The prolonged action of SEBstar HTL rapidly reduces the viscosity of gelatinized starch and produces large amounts of lower molecular weight dextrins.

Because of its heat stability, broad pH tolerance, and low calcium requirement, SEBstar HTL can be used to liquefy starch slurries at temperatures as high as 90C without the addition of calcium.
In the alcohol industry, it is used for high-temperature liquefaction of starch containing grain mashes (corn, wheat, barley, sorghum, rice etc.) for production neutral spirits.
In the brewing industry, SEBstar HTL is used to rapidly liquefy and reduce the viscosity of grain adjuncts.

SEBstar HTL should be stored in a cool, dry place. Storage in unopened containers, at or below 5°C, helps to maintain maximum activity if stored over long periods.

Safety & Handling Precautions:

Enzymes are proteins. Inhalation of dust or aerosols may induce sensitization and may cause allergic reactions in sensitized individuals. Some enzymes may irritate the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes upon prolonged contact. Avoid unnecessary contact with the product and inhalation of any aerosols or dust particles. In case of spillage or contact with the eyes or skin, rinse the affected area promptly with plenty of water.

All spills, however minor, should be removed immediately. Use respiratory protection. Major spills should be carefully shoveled into plastic-lined containers. Minor spills and remains of major spills should be removed by vacuum cleaning or flushing with water (avoid splashing). Customers should review Material Safety Data Sheets for detailed advice regarding the safe handling of enzymes.
