Carbohydrases Market

Carbohydrases Market Definition

The carbohydrases market encompasses the production, distribution, and application of carbohydrase enzymes, which catalyze the breakdown of carbohydrates into simpler sugars. The food industry’s increasing use of enzymes such as carbohydrates is propelled by the growing trend towards clean-label, free-from-food products. This transition is a cause of concern amongst many consumers as they are becoming more informed on the adverse effects of synthetic ingredients and additives on health. Carbohydrases prevent the alteration of textural and organoleptic qualities of baked products, dairy foods, and liquids while extending shelf life, minimizing losses, and improving dough rigidity.  

The high demand for clean-label products, plant-based proteins, and even grain-free products is responsible for the increasing carbohydrases market across the globe. In addition, the market for carbohydrases has been propelled by the developments in biotechnology as an allied process. Food enzymes fall under the category of food additives and food processing aids, the former usually requiring permit approval and safety evaluation in most countries. The uncertainties regarding the regulatory aspects have adverse implications for the growth of the market.
