What are Kerry Group's key R&D focus areas?
Beta galactosidase enzymatic hydrolysis
The cluster focuses on the specific biocatalytic conversion of lactose into galacto-oligosaccharides and glucose/galactose. Controlling the enzymatic reaction pathway and filtration parameters enables the production of functional prebiotic fibers and lactose-free dairy derivatives.
Aqueous antimicrobial preservative formulations
Engineering the moisture-binding properties and chemical composition of organic additives to control microbial stability in perishable products. This enables extended shelf life and safety through controlled water activity and protease-driven inhibition.
