Applications
Alkaline Protease hydrolyzes proteins into peptides and amino acids and is designed for reliable activity within its recommended alkaline pH and temperature ranges across detergent, industrial cleaning, and protein processing applications.
Laundry Detergent
Removes protein-based stains (blood, grass, food) in alkaline wash conditions. Core ingredient in modern enzyme-boosted detergent formulations.
Leather Dehairing
Replaces sodium sulfide in leather bating and dehairing, reducing chemical waste and improving hide quality at pH 8–11.
Fish Meal & Protein Recovery
Hydrolyzes fish offal and poultry byproducts into soluble protein concentrates for animal feed and aquaculture.
Pharmaceutical Peptides
Controlled hydrolysis of casein, soy, and whey proteins to produce defined peptide fractions for nutraceuticals.
Industrial Cleaning
CIP (clean-in-place) formulations for dairy, brewing, and food processing equipment where protein residue builds up.
Wheat Gluten Modification
Partial hydrolysis of gluten for improved solubility and functional properties in food ingredient manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Alkaline Protease (EC 3.4.21.62) used for?
Alkaline Protease is used for 🧺 Laundry Detergent, 🧴 Leather Dehairing, 🐟 Fish Meal & Protein Recovery, 🧪 Pharmaceutical Peptides, 🧹 Industrial Cleaning, and 🌾 Wheat Gluten Modification.
What are the optimal pH and temperature ranges for Alkaline Protease?
For best performance, use Alkaline Protease at optimal pH 8.0–11.0 and optimal temperature 40°C–60°C.
How should I interpret the activity value (100,000–200,000 U/g)?
The activity range indicates the enzyme’s measured units per gram. Higher activity typically enables faster protein hydrolysis at the same dosage; final dosing should be confirmed by your application trials.
Can Alkaline Protease replace harsh chemicals in leather processing?
Yes. In leather bating and dehairing at pH 8–11, Alkaline Protease can replace sodium sulfide, helping reduce chemical waste while supporting improved hide quality.
What is the shelf life and how should I store Alkaline Protease?
Alkaline Protease has a 12-month shelf life when sealed and stored in a cool, dry place. Avoid moisture exposure and follow your COA/TDS storage guidance.
