The enzymes market comprises industrial enzymes and specialty enzymes.
Enzymes are proteins composed of amino acids and can convert a compound (substrate) into another product by catalytic reaction. These catalytic proteins assist in the performance of biochemical reactions. They lower the activation energy of the reaction and then induce it.
Enzymes used for industrial applications such as food & beverage processing, feed, bioethanol, textile & leather, detergent, paper & pulp, wastewater treatment, and other industrial applications are termed as industrial enzymes.
Specialty enzymes are primarily utilized to produce pharmaceuticals, and diagnostics solutions, as well as in biocatalysts and research & biotechnology. They are highly selective catalysts and function in metabolic reactions and the interconversion of complex molecules to smaller ones.
