• Enzymes, Food & Industrial Definition:

Any of numerous complex proteins that are produced by living cells and which catalyze various biochemical reactions.

• Enzymes, Food & Industrial Situation Report:

1) A new era of advances in enzyme technology now exists. Genetic engineering is being applied, not only to source valued enzymes in easier-to-grow microorganisms but also to modify and tailor enzyme protein properties to customer requirements. Companies are exploring extreme environments in search of enzymes having properties more in tune with industrial needs. Researchers are applying molecular evolution to stretch and alter enzyme specificities. Enzymes are being harnessed to work in partially organic solvents so they can have new applications.

2) The prospects for this industry look bright, with increased market penetration expected in several existing applications, as new applications under exploration come to fruition and new technologies improve the needed performance characteristics enzymes must have for industrial applications.
