LIQMEI FD is derived from non-genetic modified strains of Bacillus licheniformis by submerged fermentation and refining extraction process. As an endoamylase, LIQMEI FD rapidly decreases the viscosity of a gelatinous starch solution by randomly hydrolyzing starch, glycogen and its degradation products within the α-D-1, 4 glucosidic bonds to produce soluble dextrins and oligosaccharides.
LIQMEI FD has a robust alpha-amylase activity at high temperatures with superior pH stability. It is generally applicable to the production of potable alcohol and brewing.
