“Biotechnological advances have led to the replacement of harsh chemicals with biodegradable enzymes in various industrial processes,” said BCC Research analyst and report author Jason Chen. “Food enzyme technology is the use of isolated and purified enzymes as catalysts in various processes. Innovation in food enzymes has revolutionized the biotech industry for decades.”

Despite Advancements, Some Disadvantages Are Still Present

Although the market shows promise, food enzymes are still disadvantageous to use in some instances. For example, the report notes, enzymes are unstable at high temperature and extreme pH values. Some are still quite expensive, the report adds, and they sometimes require expensive co-substrates. Additional disadvantages include potential allergens when inhaled or ingested, inhibited activity by some metal ions, their ability to be hydrolysed as peptidases, and their instability in aggressive solvents.
