Mannoproteins represent approximately 35% of the polysaccharides in wine. These macromolecules belong to the polysaccharide family. They are glycoproteins whose composition can vary from 70 to 90% polysaccharide structure of mannose plus 10 to 20% protein structure and 10% glucose.
This variability gives this family a great diversity of composition and molecular organisation.
PHYLIA® ICÔNE is a preparation composed of pure mannoproteins from S. Cerevisiae cell walls.
PHYLIA® ICÔNE is a soluble product, which allows it to be used in wines just before the bottling stage.
