Ultreze Enzymes Private Limited is an esteemed Papain enzymes manufacturer, exporter, and supplier in India . Papain (EC 3.4.22.2) is a plant proteolytic enzyme for the cysteine proteinase family of enzymes in which enormous progress has been made to understand its functions. Papain enzymes naturally in papaya (Carica papaya L.) are manufactured from the latex of raw papaya fruits. The enzyme is able to break down organic molecules made from amino acids, known as polypeptides, and thus plays a crucial role in a variety of biological processes in physiological and pathological states, drug designs, and industrial uses such as meat tenderizers, and for pharmaceutical preparations. The unique structure of papain gives it the functionality that helps elucidate how proteolytic enzymes work and also makes it useful for a variety of purposes. Papain enzyme can be available in both powder and liquid form. We deal with two types of papain enzymes i.e. crude papain enzyme and ultra-refined papain enzyme.
