GENSWEET® IGI MAX

GENSWEET® IGI MAX enzyme is an immobilized glucose isomerase for the production of high fructose syrup.

Unique physical and functional properties primarily designed to offer predictable, consistent performance and tolerance to process variations, including differences in the substrate quality.

Present fewer “fines” which allows to produce a higher yield.

Improves bulk density reducing the risk of channeling by increasing productivity and hydraulic capacity.

Highest productivity in the market that can reach up to 30 Tons per kg.

Improves hydration/column loading providing operational benefits. ​

GENSWEET® IGI MAX enzyme is intended for the conversion of glucose to high fructose syrup in continuous fixed bed reactors common in the industry today.

Dual-enzyme converted dextrose refined by carbon and ion exchange is the preferred substrate. Acid enzyme dextrose liquor or redissolved crystalline dextrose, suitably refined, may also be used. Oxidation of glucose isomerase can occur at operating temperatures and will result in activity loss.

A substrate containing at least 93% dextrose at 40 – 50% Dry Solids (DS) is recommended for isomerization. For optimum performance, the substrate should contain approximately 36 ppm magnesium ion and 110 mg/liter sulfur dioxide.
