Lysozyme
Brief Introduction:
Lysozyme is a glycoside hydrolase, which consists of 18 kinds of 129 amino acid residues and has 4 S-S bonds. It is a hydrolase that specifically acts on the cell wall of microorganisms, also known as cell wall lytic enzyme. Lysozyme is commonly found in various tissues and secretions of humans and animals, as well as in some plants and microorganisms. It can dissolve the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria and has a strong killing effect on them. It is widely used in food preservation (especially cheese, sake production), medicine (tablets, capsules, eye drops, throat drops), and other scientific researches.

The Applications of our Lysozyme:
1. Application in Medicine:
It is mainly used for a variety of mucous membrane inflammations in ENT, such as sinusitis, chronic rhinitis, acute and chronic pharyngitis, lichen planus, oral ulcers, exudative otitis media, and dermatology such as herpes zoster, flat warts, chickenpox, etc, also used for asthmatic tracheitis, ulcerative colitis, mumps, etc. This product works better with antibacterial drugs.
2. Applications in Biotechnology:
Lysozyme has the function of destroying the structure of the bacterial cell wall. Treating G+ bacteria with lysozyme can obtain protoplasts after destroying the cell wall, so it is widely used in biotechnology. And become an essential tool enzyme for cell fusion operation in genetic engineering and cell engineering.
3. Application in Aquatic Products and Meat Products:
In view of the non-toxic and harmless characteristics of lysozyme, and the decomposition of G+ cell wall, it can be well applied to aquatic products and meat products, and can be used for aquatic products and meat under the premise of ensuring that the original nutrients of the food are not lost. The products play the role of preservation and antisepsis; the combined application of lysozyme with sodium chloride and nitrite can prolong the shelf life of meat products, and its antiseptic effect is better than when used alone; the test uses 0.05% lysozyme in combination with phytic acid polyphosphate, glycine, etc. , as a preservative can extend the storage period of seafood and aquatic products.

5. Application in Other Food:
Cream cake is one of the foods that are prone to spoilage. Adding lysozyme to the pastry can prevent spoilage caused by microorganisms; the effect of applying lysozyme to food preservation is also very obvious. At the same time, according to the fact that lysozyme is non-toxic, harmless and has health-care effects, it has anti-infection and enhanced antibiotic efficacy, and promotes blood coagulation, hemostasis and tissue regeneration. Now some people try to enhance the health-care effects of food as an additive in food.
