Pectinase
Pectinase is an enzyme that breaks down pectin, a natural substance found in plant cell walls, especially in fruits. It helps to soften fruit tissues, making it easier to extract juice and clarify beverages like wine and fruit juice. By breaking down pectin, pectinase improves filtration and reduces cloudiness, enhancing the clarity and yield of the liquid. It is widely used in the food and beverage industry to facilitate processing and produce higher quality products efficiently.
