Lipolytic

Lipase CC

A triacylglycerol acylhydrolase derived from Candida cylindracea. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of ester bonds at the sn-1 and sn-3 positions of dietary triglycerides, producing monoacylglycerols and free fatty acids. These fatty acids can be absorbed through the intestinal lining and used for energy production or as structural components in cells.*

BIOCHEMICAL ROLE IN DIGESTION

Lipase CC is a microbial-derived lipase optimized for robust triglyceride hydrolysis across varied dietary fat compositions. It catalyzes ester bond cleavage to yield glycerol and free fatty acids, efficiently processing medium- and long-chain triglycerides. Its microbial source offers activity stability across food-grade applications, ensuring consistent fat digestion when endogenous pancreatic lipase secretion is insufficient.*

NUTRITIONAL RELEVANCE IN SUPPLEMENTATION

As a dietary enzyme, Lipase CC supports individuals with pancreatic insufficiency or compromised fat digestion. Its microbial stability makes it suitable for inclusion in broad-spectrum digestive formulations. Supplemental Lipase CC assists in the liberation of fatty acids for metabolic use, enhances uptake of fat-soluble nutrients, and reduces gastrointestinal symptoms associated with fat maldigestion, including bloating and oily stools.*
