How are enzymes produced in a manufacturing process?
These naturally occurring enzymes are quite often not available in sufficient quantities for industrial use. Biotechnology offers the possibility of producing enzymes for industrial use by optimizing the living conditions of a microorganism and, therefore, improving its production capacity. This technique, well known for more than 3,000 years, is called fermentation. After this fermentation process, the enzymes are isolated, and further processed for industrial use.
