Properties

Pullulanase is a high-performance starch debranching enzyme designed to unlock maximum value from starch-based processes by selectively cleaving α-1,6 branch points in amylopectin and limit dextrins. By converting branched starch into more linear chains, Pullulanase dramatically boosts the efficiency of downstream enzymes like glucoamylase and β-amylase, delivering higher sugar yields, faster saccharification, and lower residual dextrins—which translates directly into improved throughput, cleaner syrups, and more consistent product quality.

Whether you’re producing glucose or high-maltose syrups, optimizing bioethanol yields, or driving higher attenuation in brewing, Pullulanase gives you a simple, cost-effective way to increase conversion, reduce processing time, and improve overall plant performance with minimal process change.

Reaction

Starch + H2O → Glucan Fragments CAS Number: 9075-68-7
