Glucoamylase GA-6000FG is a food grade powder preparation made from selected strains of Aspergillus niger using submerged fermentation, extraction and refining techniques.
GA-6000FG has a high conversion rate of starchy substrates into fermentable sugars. It can hydrolyze α-D-1, 4 glucosidic bonds from the non-reducing end of starch one after. It can also slowly hydrolyze the α-D-1, 6 glucoside branch bonds of starch and cleaves the α-1, 3 bonds, releasing glucose.

EFFECT OF pH AND TEMPERATURE
Effective pH range for GA-6000FG is 3.0 to 5.0. For maximum activity, the optimal pH is from 3.5 to 4.5.
Generally, the temperature range for GA-6000FG is 30 to 65℃. The optimal temperature range is 58 to 62°C.
APPLICATION GUIDELINES
GA-6000FG is used to saccharify mash from various sources including corn, milo, barley, wheat, rice, potatoes and tapioca. The resultant glucose product is fermented by yeast or another appropriate microorganism.
GA-6000FG offers the following benefits to baking production:
- Increase glucose content in flours, thus provide sufficient nutrients for yeast fermentation;
- Conducive to Maillard reaction, improve the skin color and flavors of bread;
- Enhance dough fermentation ability to produce biogas, magnify loaf volume.
- Can be used in frozen dough and promote yeasts fermentation.
GA-6000FG is designed to ensure the following benefits in alcohol and brewing:
- Increased fermentation rate
- Increased alcohol yields
- Efficient starch/dextrin degradation
- Less residual starch in distiller’s grains
- Improved performance in pre-saccharification processes
DOSAGE
Baking: Recommended dosage rate for GA-6000FG is 2∼4.5g/ 100kg flour.
Alcohol and Brewing: GA-6000FG is generally added at a level of 0.25-0.3kg/ ton of raw material.
The actual enzyme dosage is dependent on the raw materials, temperature, reaction time, and pH of the individual plant saccharification/ fermentation process, and its desired result.
PACKAGING, STORAGE & SHELF-LIFE
- Standard packaging is 20kg cardboard drums lined with food-grade plastic bags or 20kg kraft paper bags. Customized packaging is available upon request.
- Typical shelf-life is 24 months at 0∼25°C in its original packaging, sealed and unopened, protected from direct sunlight. Its shelf-life will be extended if it is stored properly at 0∼10°C.
- Keep at clean, cool and dry storage room. Prolonged storage and/or adverse conditions such as humidity and higher temperatures may lead to a higher dosage requirement.



GA-6000FG is widely used in the industries such as baking, alcohol, distilled spirit, brewing,…
