Phospholipase A2
Our liquid and powder products contain a pure, microbial phospholipase A2 with functionality for phospholipid hydrolysis. It is usefull for a variety of applications, including for emulsions (sauces and dressings), baked goods (cakes and breads), and hydrolyzed lecithin production (soybean, sunflower, or rapeseed). PLA2 NAGASE products are kosher and halal certified, vegan-suitable alternatives to phospholipase A2 derived from porcine pancreas. They are produced via microbial fermentation of a Streptomyces sp. strain.
