ENZECO® Fungal Alpha Amylase is a food grade fungal alpha-amylase enzyme produced from Aspergillus oryzae that breaks down gelatinized starch to dextrins and maltose. Prolonged action results in the formation of large amounts of maltose. Fungal Amylase is not as heat stable as Bacterial Amylase, but can still be used for shelf life extension at higher dosages.
