Through advanced immobilization technology and strict process control, this enzyme offers excellent suitability for packed-bed reactors and other continuous processing systems used by global sweetener manufacturers.
Product Overview
What is Immobilized Glucose Isomerase?
Immobilized Glucose Isomerase is an enzyme preparation in which glucose isomerase is fixed onto an insoluble carrier to improve its stability, reusability and suitability for continuous operation. It is mainly used to convert glucose syrup into fructose syrup in industrial sweetener production, especially in the manufacture of high fructose corn syrup.
Compared with free enzyme systems, immobilized glucose isomerase provides longer operational life, easier separation from the reaction medium and improved process consistency. It is widely adopted in starch processing plants and food ingredient manufacturing facilities that require efficient glucose-to-fructose conversion under controlled industrial conditions.

Key Industrial Benefits
Supports High Fructose Syrup Manufacturing
Immobilized Glucose Isomerase plays a critical role in the production of fructose-rich syrup by catalyzing the isomerization of glucose. This process is essential for manufacturing high fructose corn syrup used in beverages, bakery products, dairy products and processed foods.
Improves Production Efficiency
Because the enzyme is immobilized on a carrier, it can be reused over extended operating periods. This improves reactor efficiency, reduces enzyme replacement frequency and helps lower the overall processing cost for industrial plants.
Enhances Process Stability
The immobilized form provides better control over catalytic activity and facilitates long-term continuous operation. Manufacturers benefit from more consistent product quality, reduced downtime and improved operational management.
Supports Scalable Industrial Integration
This enzyme is suitable for integration into existing starch sugar production lines and can be adapted to different process scales, making it ideal for both established producers and expanding sweetener manufacturers.
