LYSOCH® E4

LYSOCH® E4 Lysozyme is an antimicrobial enzyme extracted from egg-whites. It acts to kill gram- positive bacterial cells in processed foods by lysing their cell wall. . It is a safe and natural Lysozyme, which effectively prevents late blowing, by killing Clostridium tyrobutyricum in cheese production.

Application Areas

Cheese, Wine, Beer; Microbiological stabilization after winemaking is one of the process that worry winemakers the most. Once the wine is ready to age or to be bottled, the enologist must maintain the quality of the final product. Lysoch™ E4 can also control the onset of malolactic fermentation (MLF) and can contribute to the microbiological stability of wines, once alcoholic fermentation and/or MLF are completed.; LAB and yeast contamination, if left uncontrolled, can cause incidents in beer like turbidity, off flavor and ropiness. Lysoch™ E4 is effective at controlling LAB and contaminant yeasts (Brettanomyces) to extend the shelf life of high fermentation, non-pasteurized, and bottle-conditioned beers.

Use Direction

The recommended dosage for Lysoch® E4 is in the range of 0.02 - 0.25 g/kg. In general, dissolve Lysoch® E4 into distilled cold boiled water, then add directly into foods. Exact dosage and way of application for Lysoch® E4 depends on the nature of the product for which it is intended.
