Bioven Ingredients Rennet - Chymosin Enzyme (Liquid)

Cas No: 9001-98-3

Description: Bioven Ingredients produces and manufactures high purity Chymosin Enzyme. Cheese production requires the use of a 323 aminoacids protein called chymosin (also known as rennin). Chymosin (36 kDA) is a proteolytic enzyme which is usually obtained from calf stomachs. The role of this enzyme is to coagulate the milk, which is very important for digestion of milk in young animals.

Commercial Use:

• Cheese production: coagulating milk to form cheese
• Dairy processing: improving texture and consistency of dairy products
• Biotechnology: breaking down biomass for biofuels and bioplastics
• Food supplements: producing nutritional products for infants and children
• Pharmaceuticals: producing vaccines and biopharmaceuticals
  

Function: Rennet chymosin is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks down casein, a protein found in milk, into smaller peptides and amino acids. This process, known as coagulation, causes the milk to curdle and separate into a solid curd and a liquid whey.
