Cellulase, known technically as β-1,4-glucan-4-glucan hydrolase, is not a single entity but rather a collective term for a synergistic group of enzymes responsible for the breakdown of cellulose. This complex enzyme system typically comprises exo-β-glucanase, endo-β-glucanase, and β-glucosidase, often complemented by a highly active xylanase. Their combined action targets the β-1,4-glycosidic bonds within cellulose chains, yielding smaller saccharides and ultimately glucose.

The enzymatic degradation of cellulose by microbial cellulase is fundamentally important across various industrial sectors. It facilitates the conversion of insoluble cellulose, a major component of plant cell walls, into usable sugars. Furthermore, in food processing, cellulase plays a crucial role in breaking down cell walls in fruits and vegetables, significantly improving juice yield and clarity, as well as enhancing the accessibility of nutrients.

Our offering is a high-activity Neutral Cellulase preparation, specifically designed and refined for wide application. It is available as a fine yellow **powder**, ensuring ease of handling, storage, and integration into diverse processes. With a specified activity level of **100,000 units**, this enzyme delivers potent catalytic performance required for efficient cellulose degradation.

This product is particularly distinguished by its **Food Grade** and **Feed Grade** qualifications, signifying its suitability and safety for use in the food and animal feed industries. Its neutral pH optimal activity makes it versatile for applications where maintaining a neutral environment is preferred or necessary. The product is identifiable by its CAS number 9012-54-8 and EINECS 232-734-4. It demonstrates solubility in cold water and should be stored in a cool, dry, and dark location to maintain its optimal activity over its shelf life, typically 24 months under proper conditions.

The applications of high-activity Neutral Cellulase powder are extensive and continue to grow. In the food industry, beyond juice processing, it's employed to soften and peel cereals and beans, reduce the viscosity of coffee extracts (within permitted dosage limits), and as a pre-treatment for brewing raw materials. It assists in the extraction of defatted soybean powder and isolated soybean protein, and is valuable in the manufacturing processes of starch, agar, and sea algae-based foods. Furthermore, it effectively eliminates turbidity caused by fibrous materials in various beverages including juice, wine, and beer, and facilitates the instant dissolution of green and black tea extracts.

In the animal feed industry, cellulase supplementation improves the digestibility of plant-based feedstuffs by breaking down cellulose and non-starch polysaccharides in cell walls. This leads to enhanced nutrient absorption, improved feed conversion ratios, and better animal performance, particularly for poultry, swine, and ruminants consuming diets high in fibrous materials.

The textile industry benefits from cellulase in processes like bio-polishing and de-pilling of cotton fabrics, resulting in a smoother surface, reduced pilling, and improved fabric feel. It is also used in denim washing to achieve unique abrasion effects (stone washing) with less environmental impact compared to traditional methods.

Other significant applications include the paper industry for de-inking recycled paper, improving pulp drainage, and refining fibers; in the daily chemical industry; industrial washing formulations; tobacco processing; oil exploitation; and wastewater treatment for degrading cellulosic waste. Its role in converting biomass into biofuels is also gaining prominence.

Quality and consistency are paramount. Our production processes adhere to strict quality control measures to ensure that each batch of Neutral Cellulase powder meets the high standards required for its diverse applications. The product is securely packaged, often in 50kg drums or other suitable containers like bags or cartons depending on client requirements, facilitating safe transport and storage.
