What is Lipase?

Description

Lipase is obtained from two primary sources: (1) the edible fore stomach tissue of calves, kids, or lambs and; (2 ) animal pancreatic tissue. It is produced as purified edible tissue preparations or as aqueous extracts. It is dispersible in water and insoluble in alcohol. The major active principle is lipase, IUB No. 3.1.1.3, CAS No. 9001-62-1.

The Uses of Lipase

To split fats without damaging sensitive constituents, such as vitamins or unsaturated fatty acids. In food processing for flavor improvement; in detergents for the improvement of cleaning action. For review of industrial applications of microbial lipases, see Seitz, J. Am. Oil Chem. Soc. 51, 12 (1974).
