AILAZYME® AG Series
High-performance glucoamylase solutions for starch saccharification and ethanol production
The AILAZYME® AG Series is a family of industrial glucoamylase solutions developed for efficient starch saccharification in starch processing and ethanol production. These enzymes hydrolyze α-1,4 glycosidic bonds and, at a lower rate, α-1,6 linkages to produce fermentable glucose, maximizing starch conversion efficiency during saccharification and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF).
Multiple product grades are available to match different starch sources, process configurations, and production objectives.
Product Overview
The AILAZYME® AG Series consists of high-performance glucoamylase preparations produced through controlled microbial fermentation. Depending on the selected grade, the series includes both conventional glucoamylase products and advanced enzyme systems incorporating pullulanase to improve debranching and starch conversion efficiency.
The AG Series is designed for saccharification following starch liquefaction and can also be applied during simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF), supporting high glucose yields and efficient ethanol production.
Key Benefits
✔️ High glucose yield
✔️ Efficient starch saccharification
✔️ Excellent conversion of liquefied starch
✔️ Supports simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF)
✔️ Multiple grades for different industrial applications
✔️ Compatible with starch processing and ethanol production
Applications in Ethanol and Alcohol Production
During ethanol production, the AG Series converts dextrins produced during liquefaction into fermentable glucose for yeast fermentation. Selected grades are suitable for conventional saccharification as well as simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF).
Typical applications include:
Fuel ethanol
Bioethanol
Potable alcohol
Grain alcohol
Applications in Starch Processing
The AG Series efficiently converts liquefied starch into fermentable glucose for the production of glucose syrup, maltose syrup, and other starch-derived sweeteners. Selected grades also contain pullulanase to improve hydrolysis of branched starch molecules and increase overall conversion efficiency.
Typical applications include:
Glucose syrup
High glucose syrup
Maltose syrup
Starch saccharification
