EUCODIS Bioscience, a
company providing customized enzymes to the pharmaceutical, chemical, and
other industries, announced today that it has launched a panel of
phospholipases, adding a new enzyme family to its product portfolio.
Phospholipases are a group of enzymes that are widely used in the
industrial processing of natural fats and oils, such as in the food and
beverage industries, in the cosmetics industry, and in the manufacturing of
bioproducts from renewable resources (biomass). The market for phospholipases
is estimated at EUR 40 million.
In 2009, EUCODIS Bioscience has launched several enzyme products,
including a library of currently 20 novel lipases and beta-lactamases.
Commenting on the launch of a new product group, Thomas Fischer, CEO of
EUCODIS Bioscience, said: "In adding new enzymes to our product portfolio, we
continue to execute our customer-focused strategy: We offer novel enzymes
with promising properties to a broad range of industries, we manufacture
commercial quantities according to market demand, and we engineer enzymes to
customers' specific needs. Feedback from the market is an impressive
confirmation of this strategy, with our order book filling steadily."
