The China food enzymes market size is projected to expand at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the diversification in extraction process of food enzymes.
Food enzymes are complex ingredients, which are used to increase the diversity, variety, and quality during processing of food. They act as a catalyst and breaks down nutrients, such as vitamins and fats into simpler forms to promote healthy digestion. Food enzymes are majorly applicable in the baking industry, fruit juices & cheese manufacturing, and the brewing industry. Enhancement of texture, flavor & fragrance, preservation, coagulation, and tenderization are the multiple benefits of food enzymes, which increases its utilization in the various food processes.
Food enzymes are biocatalysts that accelerate different types of biochemical reactions. Most preferred source of food enzymes are microorganisms. Bacteria, fungi, and yeast are used for the biosynthesis of various enzymes, which are used in several commercial applications. Development in fermentation techniques for the production of microbial enzymes supports to provide extensive supply of enzymes.
