Transglutaminase Product Information
Transglutaminase is a naturally occurring enzyme. Its property is the adhesion of proteins (even of different types) at the molecular level. The enzyme transglutaminase was first isolated and studied in Japan in 1959. Transglutaminase is a whole group of enzymes that promote the formation of covalent bonds between amino groups from the free or side chains of lysine of one protein and the γ-carboxamide groups of glutamine in another protein. These bonds are quite strong, resistant to temperature and proteolysis. In this case, the transglutaminase enzyme itself does not enter into a reaction, but is a biocatalyst. That is, the enzyme simply helps to sew separate sections of protein molecules into a single network. The ability of TG enzyme to "stick together" proteins makes it possible to use it in the production of restructured fish and meat products, with a low cost of raw materials and a higher final cost. Improve and homogenize the textures of cooked / raw smoked sausages, hams and deli meats, significantly reduce cutting losses, and ensure the desired shape and size of products.

Transglutaminase is an enzyme used in the production of food industry, it can cross-link the proteins, which makes the texture of the food more stable,increase the yield and capacity . For example, in the case of sliced cooked ham, a better slicing consistency can be achieve. It is suitable for the production of meat ,dairy, bakery, surimi etc., It is unnecessary to change any technology and production process.Recommended dosage 0.01% - 0.03% against the total weight.
Application in Meat products Ham
• Facilitates the bonding of the internal parts of the deboned hamDIRECTION FOR USAGE:
Yotabio TG has been designed to give you either fast action (TG-RM) or processing time (TG-M) from point of application. TG products can be introduced to meat products in several ways including:
• Slurry addition: for example, TG-RM can be pre-hydrated at about 4 to 4.5 times its weight in water. The slurry is then added to meat chunks, blended and allowed to react in the desired shape under refrigerated conditions. Once mixed with water, the slurry must immediately be mixed with the product and formed within 20-30 minutes. Typical use: 1.0% of formula weight.
• Dry addition: for example, when application in Cheese, put TG-M and lactose together mixed with other dry ingredients to be included in a formulation. Typical Use Range: 0.003%-0.3%
• Mixer addition:for example, TG-M can be added into mixer or tumbler as a powder with Sodium phosphate,potato starch in Surimi, fish ball application.Product should be mixed 4-5 minutes to evenly coat all surface. Stuff and refrigerate 6 hours to overnight for enzymatic reaction. Longer reaction may result in better bonding performance. Once reacted,freezing or cooking does not weaken the bond.Typical Use Range: 0.1%-0.3%
• Sprinkle addition: for example, Sprinkle TG-M onto substrate so that all surfaces to be bonded are coated with powder. Shake off excess and Vacuum package within about 5-10minutes, then Chill product overnight.
