Papain powder is a kind of proteolytic enzyme. Papain is a kind of low-specific proteolytic enzyme contained Carieapapaya, which widely exists in the roots, stems, leaves and fruits of papaya, with the most abundant content in immature milk. The active center of papain contains cysteine, which belongs to sulfhydryl protease. It has the characteristics of high enzymatic activity, good thermal stability, natural hygiene and safety, so it is widely used in food, medicine, feed, daily chemical, leather and textile industries.

2. Manufacturing method

The product is made from immature fruit of papaya by extracting emulsion, solidifying, settling and drying. Generally, the application of crude products is the main industry. There are three production methods of papain rhyme, namely, direct hot air drying, spray drying and membrane separation freeze drying.

3. Industry application

Pharmaceutical industry application

Drugs containing papain powder can fight cancer, tumors, lymphocytic leukemia, protozoa and parasites, tuberculosis, etc., and have anti-inflammatory, choleretic, analgesic and digestive effects. Treatment of gynecological diseases, glaucoma, bone hyperplasia, gunknife wound healing, blood type identification, insect bites, etc.

Food industry application

Enzymatic reactions can be used to hydrolyze the protein of food macromolecules into small molecular peptides or amino acids. Effectively change the way of protein utilization, greatly improve the nutritional value of food and reduce costs. Conducive to human digestion and absorption.

Used as a meat tenderizer

Hydrolyzed protease can be added to meat to distribute enzymes in animal blood vessels and provide enough enzymes to muscles and other tissues, so that the meat processed by this method becomes softer during cooking.

Used as beer clarifier

When beer is stored at low temperature, protein monophenols will precipitate. Hydrolytic proteases can partially degrade proteins so that they do not precipitate.

Cosmetic application

Papain powder is added to the cosmetics containing protein and oil, which has unique effects such as whitening the skin, caring for the skin, decontamination, promoting blood circulation, improving the skin quality, etc., and improving the product quality. It can be made into slimming tea, skin care products, etc.

Industrial application of daily chemicals

Used in soap, detergent, washing powder, hand sanitizer, etc., it has strong detergency and bactericidal effect.

Feed industry application

It can be used as a feed additive to develop protein sources, promote absorption, improve feed utilization, save costs, help livestock digest and accelerate growth. It can also be used as an additive for advanced compound fertilizers for vegetables and fruits.

Leather industry application

Papain powder is used as a depilatory agent for tan leather, which has the effect of reducing pores and lightening skin lines.

Textile industry application

It can be used for the refining of wool and silk, which can achieve soft, comfortable and anti-shrinking effects.
