BL-Xylanase

In terms of industrial uses, xylanase is widely used in the food and beverage, textile, pulp and paper, animal feed, and biofuel production sectors.

Xylanase is employed in the food and beverage sector for a number of functions. It is frequently used in baking to enhance baked foods’ texture, increase bread volume, and improve dough handling. The xylan found in flour can be broken down by xylanase, lowering its viscosity and enhancing dough extensibility. Additionally, xylanase is utilised to improve juice extraction and clarify the finished product in the manufacture of fruit juices.

Enzymes called xylanases are employed in the bleaching process in the pulp and paper industry. The quality and effectiveness of pulp bleaching can be affected by xylan. A xylanase treatment aids in the degradation of xylan, improving brightness and

An enzyme called xylanase catalyses the disintegration of xylan, a complex polysaccharide present in plant cell walls. Xylose sugar molecules are joined together by -1,4 glycosidic linkages to form xylan.

In order to liberate xylose oligosaccharides or single xylose units, xylanase particularly targets and breaks these -1,4 glycosidic bonds in xylan. Different types of organisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and yeasts, produce xylanase enzymes.

Xylanase is a vital enzyme in nature that breaks down the hemicellulose found in plant cell walls. For the purpose of accessing and using the energy contained in the complex carbohydrate, certain bacteria and fungi create xylanase to break down xylem. In the digestive tracts of herbivorous animals, xylanase enzymes are also present and help break down plant-based foods.
