High Quality 5000FU/G – 20000FU/G Nattokinase Powder
Products Description
Nattokinase Extract is an enzyme extracted and purified from a Japanese food called Natto. Natto is a food made from fermented soybeans that has been eaten in Japan for many years. Natto is produced by fermentation by adding the bacterium Bacillus natto, a beneficial bacteria, to boiled soybeans. The resulting nattokinase enzyme is produced when the bacterium acts on the soybeans. While other soy foods contain enzymes, it is only the natto preparation that contains the specific nattokinase enzyme.
Enzymatic Properties
The enzyme is stable in a pH range from 6.0 to 10.0 with the optimum between 7.0 to 9.0. The optimum temperature is 50ºC with a sharp drop over 60ºC.
Activity
One (1) FU unit is defined as the amount of the enzyme which increases the absorbency of the filtrate at 275 nm by 0.01 per minute under the conditions of the assay (JBSL). The acceptance criteria for all enzyme assays is: NLT 85.0% and NMT 115.0% of the declared units of enzyme activity.*
Function & Application
Nattokinase (NK for short), also known as subtilisin, is a serine protease produced by Bacillus subtilisl natto during the fermentation of natto. It has the functions of dissolving thrombus, reducing blood viscosity, improving blood circulation, softening and increasing blood vessel elasticity.
- Obviously shorten the dissolution time (ELT) of euglobulin;
- Increased fibrinolytic activity in plasma;
- The amount of t-PA in plasma has increased. Due to NK’s safety, stability and good thrombolytic effect, it may be used as an oral agent for thrombosis treatment.
