Glucose Oxidase is refined from Aspergillus Niger by submerged fermentation, which can remove glucose, deoxidize and kill bacteria. It’s widely used in gluconic acid, flour, baking food processing, medicine and other industries.
Action Principle
Glucose Oxidase can specifically catalyze β-D-glucose to form gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide under aerobic
conditions.

Application:
Flour improvement: When Glucose Oxidase is added into flour, the sulfur group in gluten protein will be oxidized to form disulfide bond, so as to strengthen the network structure of the dough and make the dough have good elasticity and mechanical stirring resistance. The recommended quantity is add 20-60g/T flour.
Gluconic acid: It can be used in enzymatic production of gluconic acid and its salts, which should be used together with Catalase.
Alcohol brewing: In beer, It can remove the dissolved oxygen and convert the glucose into gluconic acid, to prevent beer aging and extend its shelf life.
Food preservation: Glucose oxidase can also be used in fruit juice preservation, tea preservation, etc.. By removing the oxygen in food to produce hydrogen peroxide, it can achieve the purpose of antibacterial and antiseptic and extend the shelf life of food.
