Papain Enzyme in Animal Feed industry

Papain or protease enzyme are widely used in animal feed to improve digestion and increase the nutritional value of the feed. Some benefit of protease enzyme in animal feed include:

1) Improves feed efficiency
2) Improves digestion and nutrient absorption
3) Reduces stress on the digestive system
4) Enhancing feed consumption, growth and survival rate
5) Optimizes FCR and maximize productivity
6) It complements naturally occurring proteases in feed, and considerably increases amino acid.

Papain Enzyme in Animal Meat industry

Meat tenderizer act even on the toughest cuts of meat and make them soft and appetizing. It facilitates better penetration of spices and marinades into the meat’s interior thereby enhancing taste and helps in cutting fuel cost by significantly reducing cooking time.

Papain as a meat tenderizer is highly valuable for those living at high altitudes where normal cooking is time-consuming. Papain is especially beneficial elderlies, patient and those who have teeth problem. It aids digestive system keeping your bowel movement perfect ans is an invaluable product for processed meat industries, hotels, restaurants chains, and fried chicken chains.

Papain Enzyme in Brewery

Papain enzyme can be added to beer before filtration and packaging. It was the first haze preventative used in the brewing industry. Papain enzyme is capable of digesting dissolved proteins—with amino acids as a by-product—and thus increasing the clarity of beer.

In brewing, papain is used to digest excess proteins after fermentation, because high protein levels can cause hazes, high viscosity, and excess foaming in the finished beer. Papain is also very resilient and acts under a wide range of conditions including high and low temperatures. This makes it suitable for many applications, particularly in foods with low pH and during beer processing at low temperatures.

Papain Enzyme in Leather Tanning Industry

Papain has enormous potential with a wide range of application in Leather and wool industries. Dehairing and dewooling are the prominent stages where papain application can effectively govern the leather processing with least environmental pollution.

S.I. Chemicals manufacture effective proteolytic enzymes for loosening, wetting and degreasing and a premier bating enzyme that helps remove adhering fatty tissues.

Papain Enzyme in Optical Lens Cleaning

Papain is used in Optical Lens Cleaning for cleansing of the proteinaceous debris that deposit on the lens surface and affect the clarity of the lens. Generally, contact lens cleansing is carried out with three types of cleaner solution as surfactant, oxidative and enzyme.

Surfactants are safe and non-harmful to lenses but do not effectively remove the protein deposits. Oxidative cleaners are effective in removing non-protein deposits from contact lenses, however can have a toxic effect on lenses. Enzyme cleaners are safe to lenses and efficient in removing the main component of contact lens debris, namely proteins.

Papain Enzyme in Pharmaceutical

Papain is used in the production of heparin drug, vaccines and digestive enzymes. It also widely used for replacement therapy in pathological conditions in which the concentration of bile acids in the upper intestine is low, such as biliary fistula, the disease of the ileum, and hepatic or extrahepatic cholestasis.

Papain is also an excellent enzyme for breaking down proteins. It is an excellent fibrinolytic and caseinolytic enzyme which in combination with amylase and lipase proves to be a formidable digestive aid. It may be administered in an acid solution to increase the digestive power of gastric juices, particularly where there is a deficiency of pepsin secretions. Papain enzyme is also used as a debriding agent for cleaning of necrotic wounds, ulcers, sinuses and fistulas. It also finds application as an anti-inflammatory agent in the treatment of bronchial asthma, bronchitis and thrombophlebitis.

Papain Enzyme in Personal Care & Cosmetics

Papain is used in the cosmetic industry for exfoliating treatments to remove dead surface skin. Papain application in cosmetics industry also include production of enzyme-based shampoos for house pets to clean the fur and make it easier to brush.
