Enzymes are proteins that naturally occur in all living organisms, such as plants, animals, and microorganisms. They speed up chemical reactions without being consumed themselves. Some foods are also known for their enzymes, such as pineapple with bromelain and papaya with papain.
Amylase is an enzyme that naturally occurs in plants, such as sprouting grains, and in microorganisms. The name is derived from amylum, the Latin word for starch.
Lipase is an enzyme that naturally occurs in plants, animals, and microorganisms. The name is derived from the Greek word lipos, which means fat.
Protease is a collective term for enzymes associated with proteins. Well-known examples from food are papain from papaya and bromelain from pineapple.
Amyloglucosidase, also called glucoamylase, is an enzyme that is applied in the food industry, for example, in baking bread and brewing beer.
FIP stands for Fédération Internationale Pharmaceutique. It is an international unit to express the activity of an enzyme. The value 35,000 FIP/g indicates how much activity the lipase has per gram.
The weight of an enzyme does not tell you everything about its strength. That is why the activity is often also stated for enzymes in a fixed unit, such as FIP. This allows you to better assess the amount of active enzyme.
