Sucrase

Sucrase is an enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of sucrose into its constituent sugars, glucose and fructose. The commercial enzyme, also known as invertase or beta-fructofuranosidase, is produced by controlled fermentation and supplied by Nustras as a food-grade enzyme powder for digestive-enzyme-category supplements and food processing.

Sucrase is formulated into digestive-enzyme supplement blends in capsule, tablet and powder form, often alongside lactase, amylase, protease and lipase, and is used in food processing, in confectionery, baking, syrups and fermented products, to invert sucrose.

The material is a white to light yellow or tan powder, standardised on a food-grade carrier. Enzyme activity, expressed in sucrase or invertase units, is standardised to specification; activity is confirmed by an enzymatic assay against a defined substrate, and heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis. Cool, dry storage is recommended to maintain activity.

Nustras supplies sucrase in bulk commercial quantities, in sealed food-grade bags and fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Food-grade invertase is an accepted enzyme preparation and supplement ingredient in major markets; buyers confirm the source organism, permitted use and claim for their application.
