Lysozyme, also known as muramidase or N-acetylmuramide glycanohydrlase, is an alkaline enzyme that can hydrolyze mucopolysaccharides in bacteria. Lysozyme is widely present in various tissues of the human body. The egg white of birds and poultry, the tears of mammals, saliva, plasma, milk and other liquids, and microorganisms also contain this enzyme. Among them, egg white is the most abundant.
Production Application & Function
Food field:
It is suitable for the preservation of various foods. In addition, the enzyme can also kill intestinal spoilage cocci, increase the intestinal anti-infective power, and at the same time promote the proliferation of Bifidobacterium bifidum in the baby intestines, and promote the cheese protein curd to facilitate digestion, so it is good for baby food and drinks additive.
Medical field:
It can be used as a natural anti-infective substance with bactericidal effect. It has the functions of antibacterial, antiviral, hemostasis, swelling and pain relief, and speeding up tissue recovery. Lysozyme lozenges are used for acute and chronic pharyngitis, oral ulcers, etc.
Bioengineering field:
The characteristics of lysozyme's specific hydrolysis of bacterial cell walls are helpful to understand the structure of bacterial cell walls: the protoplasts prepared by decomposing the cell walls can be used for microbial classification and microbial breeding and other academic research. In recent years, lysozyme has become an indispensable tool enzyme for cell engineering and genetic engineering, used to extract and produce enzymes, nucleic acids and active peptides.
