Enzymes are biocatalysts used to help speed up chemical reactions that are contained in every living organism. They function as a natural catalyst for a biochemical reaction, without being changed or diminished. Enzymes are, for the most part, derived from fungal and bacterial organisms, with some products coming from plant sources, such as papaya or pineapple. DSM Food Specialties’ leading enzyme and fermentation technology, combined with its application knowledge, enables the company to develop enzymes that help customers to achieve or exceed their manufacturing goals. Enzymes can ensure cost savings and promote a more sustainable way of producing (food) products by improving processing efficiency, replacing physical and chemical treatments, reducing energy needs and using fewer raw materials.
