Lysozyme

Lysozyme enzyme is approved as a natural preservative coded E1105 in Europe. Our Lysozyme is produced from fresh egg white, it is also widely distributed in biological liquids (tears, saliva, bloods, etc.) where its function is to attack bacteria foreign to the body. Lysozyme inhibits the growth of some Gram-positive bacteria including bacteria strains of the genus Clostridia. Today the use of lysozyme extracted from egg white is widely used in feed, food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. In food industry it is allowed in more than 30 countries including EU, where lysozyme is regulated as a preservative in some cheese and wine.
