Neova Technologies produces purified enzymes extracted from government certified pork pancreas glands. These naturally occurring pancreatic proteins play an important role in the digestion of food. Neova uses the term trypsin as the designation for these enzyme preparations. Trypsin is a serine-type protease that preferentially hydrolyzes peptide bonds whose carboxyl groups are contributed by lysine (Lys) or arginine (Arg).

Likewise, proteolytic enzymes prepared from government-certified bovine pancreas are designated as chymotrypsin.
