In April 2014, Royal DSM had put its food specialties world-class enzyme facility in Yixing, Jiangsu province into operation. The facility would serve both global and local markets, laying a foundation for the development of the DSM enzyme business in China. The facility covers an area of 4,000 square meters.
Enzymes Market Segmentation Analysis
The enzymes market is segmented based on the product type as carbohydrases, proteases, lipases, polymerases & nucleases, and other enzymes. The carbohydrases segment accounts for the highest market share due to increasing usage of the carbohydrases in the textiles & leather, food & beverages, pulp & paper, and biofuel. The carbohydrases are the group of enzymes that promote the hydrolysis or synthesis of carbohydrates into sugar such as glucose and fructose. Carbohydrases are used for the production of corn syrup, ethanol, baking, and brewing. Carbohydrates are used in the beverage and pharmaceutical industries. Carbohydrases are useful for the production of prebiotic products and artificial sweeteners for wines and juices. There are different types of carbohydrates such as amylase, cellulase, and other carbohydrates. The amylases catalyze the hydrolysis of starch into the sugars. The amylases are classified into alpha, beta, and gamma depending on the way they attack the bonds of the starch molecules. Alpha-amylases are widespread among living organisms. Beta-amylases are present in the yeasts, molds, bacteria, and plants. The beta-amylases are used for the removal of the starchy sizing agents from textiles, and conversion of the cereal grains to fermentable sugars. Gamma-amylases have the efficiency of cleaving certain types of glycosidic linkages in the acidic environment.
Further, the enzymes market is also classified based on the source as the plants, animals, and microorganisms. The microorganisms segment accounts for the highest market share of XX% in 2019.
