Applications
Alpha-amylase hydrolyses starch into dextrins and fermentable sugars, supporting commercial baking, brewing, syrup production, textile desizing, paper coating, and fuel ethanol processing.
Baking & Flour Treatment
Hydrolyses damaged starch at dough mixing, generating fermentable sugars for yeast activity. Typical 5–20 ppm on flour weight helps manage crumb structure and loaf volume. Fungal grade available on request.
Learn more →Brewing & Distilling
Accelerates mash conversion in all-malt and adjunct grists at 63–67 °C. Thermostable alpha-amylase maintains activity through higher-temp cooker rests to ensure consistent yield before saccharification.
Learn more →Starch Liquefaction
Primary liquefaction enzyme for glucose and HFCS syrup manufacture. Reduces viscosity in 30 % DS corn slurry post jet-cook, producing DE 10–15 dextrins at commercial scale.
Learn more →Textile Desizing
Removes starch sizing from woven cotton at 60–95 °C and pH 6.0–7.0 in pad-steam or saturator systems. Offers a gentler alternative to alkaline-oxidative methods.
Learn more →Paper & Pulp
Modifies starch viscosity in surface sizing and board coatings for improved runnability and pick resistance. Enables precise hydrolysis without over-thinning.
Learn more →Fuel Ethanol Liquefaction
Processes 32–33 % DS maize or cassava slurry through jet-cook and flash-cool steps. Thermostable grade pairs with glucoamylase for high-efficiency saccharification.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1 What does alpha-amylase do in industrial processing?
Alpha-amylase is an endo-enzyme that cleaves internal α-1,4 bonds in starch, producing dextrins and maltose. It is employed in baking, brewing, starch liquefaction, textile desizing, paper coating, and ethanol production.
Q2 What is the alpha-amylase temperature range?
Standard grade operates around 60–70 °C; thermostable alpha-amylase performs between 70–95 °C and tolerates jet-cooker spikes. Select grade based on pH, solids content, and residence time.
Q3 What's the difference between alpha-amylase and beta-amylase?
Alpha-amylase acts internally on starch chains to quickly reduce viscosity. Beta-amylase releases maltose from chain ends. Each enzyme serves distinct roles and is not interchangeable in process design.
Q4 Do you offer a thermostable alpha-amylase grade?
Yes. Bacillus licheniformis-derived thermostable alpha-amylase is available at 60,000 U/g for high-temperature liquefaction in starch, ethanol, and distilling lines.
Q5 Is fungal alpha-amylase available for baking?
Yes. Fungal alpha-amylase can be quoted for specific bakery formulations. Our primary stock is bacterial alpha-amylase for consistent industrial bulk supply.
Q6 How much alpha-amylase should I dose in baking, brewing, and ethanol?
Typical usage: 5–20 ppm on flour weight in baking, application-specific low doses in brewing, and 0.5–0.8 kg/ton dry solids in starch liquefaction or ethanol. Confirm via pilot trials.
Q7 Is your alpha-amylase food grade, HALAL, KOSHER, and non-GMO?
Yes. Documentation for food grade, ISO 9001, HALAL, and KOSHER is available. Non-GMO options can be supplied depending on production lot and buyer requirements.
Q8 How do I request a free alpha-amylase sample and COA?
Provide substrate, process parameters, target dosage, and annual requirement via the contact form or email. We will recommend format and grade, then arrange a free 100 g sample with COA and TDS.
