KILLAZYME Inhibits Lactic Acid Bacteria

Prevent volatile acidity in fermentation before it happens Add at first signs of a problematic ferment to help limit the production of volatile acidity Avoid a malolactic fermentation (MLF) in White Wines Use as an insurance policy during barrel aging of Red Wines to reduce the risk of volatile acidity CellarScience Killazyme is a lysozyme that is used to control and inhibit gram-positive lactic acid producing bacteria including Oenoccoccus, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus.  This is a tool winemakers can use throughout the winemaking process to limit bacteria contamination and the production of volatile acidity. Killazyme does not affect gram-negative Acetic Acid bacteria nor yeast.   Don’t Use Killazyme If You Are Coinoculating Yeast and MLWhen performing a “secondary” malolactic fermentation (MLF) we want lactic acid Bacteria to convert the harsher malic acid into lactic acid. Mostly MLF fermentations are done sequentially with the sugar fermentation being completed first followed b
