BIOENGINEERED ENZYMES

CHEESE RENNET –Traditionally rennet came from the lining of the cows, sheep or goat- The 4th Stomachwas washed and salted. The enzymes found in rennet (e.g. Chymosin) causes the milk to coagulate breaking down protein starting the digestion process of forming curds for cheese.

Most vegetarian cheeses are curdled with either plants, fungi, or bacteria.

Gene technologyThe production of chymosin with the aid of genetically modified organisms is widespread. A large part of global cheese production is conducted using GM chymosin.

Laundry DetergentsMany classes of enzymes are known to improve the laundry process:

Proteases collar & cuff soil-lines, grass, blood. Amylases sauces, ice-creams, gravy.

Lipases greasy body and food stains

Cellulases provide general cleaning benefits, especially on dust and mud, and also work on garments made from cellulosic fibers, Minimizing pilling to restore color and softness
