Danisco announced today that it is now producing and will begin selling Chymostar® Supreme, a proprietary fermentation-produced chymosin (FPC), an important ingredient for cheese production.

Commenting on Danisco’s new FPC production capabilities, Doug Willrett, Vice President, Danisco Cultures Division, explains, “As a leader in cheese cultures, we can better serve our customers, having Chymostar® Supreme in our portfolio, and now we have the internal capabilities to produce it, which we acquired through the acquisition of Genencor in 2005.”

Danisco’s Genencor Division develops and manufactures industrial enzymes.

With Chymostar® Supreme added to its portfolio, Danisco now provides a full line of cultures and enzymes-two key processing aids in cheesemaking.

“Chymostar® Supreme matches the quality and performance of other commercial coagulants and gives cheesemakers another source of FPC,” says Willrett. “It also gives Danisco a more competitive offer in today’s marketplace.”

Chymostar® Supreme will be presented this week in the US at: International Cheese Technology Expo, Madison WI, April 22-24th, 2008 booth #1014.
