✦ Synopsis
acrylamide, which is associated with cancer, from foods. Foods such as coffee, chips, and baked goods have fairly high acrylamide content. There are already existing asparaginase enzymes to get rid of acrylamide but their activity is compromised at the high temperatures required to process many food products. cLEcta's new enzyme is claimed to work at an optimum temperature of 75-95°C. The results of tests on cornflakes showed that the new enzyme reduced the product's acrylamide content by almost 90%. A new class of hydrolase enzyme for eliminating grass stains, a first for the detergent sector, has also been developed by C-LEcta. The enzyme is currently being tested by detergent makers. The enzyme can be used as an additive together with the detergent, unlike other processes that require stained textiles to undergo pre-treatment.
