The global market for the production of microbial enzymes and use in dairy-products manufacture is considerably large, but is being dominated only by a limited number of enzyme producers. In India the microbial dairy enzymes requirement has been very limited till now. Presently, many of these microbial enzymes, such as microbial rennets and other enzymes, are being imported. Hence, there is a scope for the production of enzymes such as microbial rennet, lactase, proteinases, and lipases indigenously. In the near future, the requirement for these enzymes is bound to increase by leaps and bounds, basically due to requirement of value-added dairy products in the country. https://www.biotech-asia.org/vol6no2/the-recent-developments-in-dairy-technology/ Microbial enzymes; microbial rennets; lipases; lactase; proteinases; Dairy technology
