Porcine Esterase is used in Urinalysis, Asymmetric Ester Hydrolysis, Research, Life Science and Assay Manufacturing. Control manufacturers use porcine esterase for the detection of esterase levels in urine to indicate infection. It is also commonly used for kinetic resolutions and asymmetric synthesis in organic chemistry. In addition, in pharmaceutical and industrial applications it is used to catalyse the hydrolysis of pentaacetyl catechin and epicatechin.
