Savior of Thrombus
Nattokinase

Nattokinase is a potent fibrinolytic enzyme extracted and highly purified from a traditional Japanese food called Natto. Natto is a fermented cheese-like food that has been used in Japan for over 1000 years for its popular taste and as a folk remedy for heart and vascular diseases.

 
Dr. Hiroyuki Sumi had long researched thrombolytic enzymes searching for a natural agent that could successfully dissolve thrombus associated with cardiac and cerebral infarction.
 
Sumi found what he was looking for when Natto was dropped onto artificial thrombus (fibrin) in a Petri dish and allowed it to stand at 37°C (approximately body temperature). The thrombus around the natto dissolved gradually and had completely dissolved within 18 hours. Sumi named the newly discovered enzyme "nattokinase", which means "enzyme in natto". Sumi commented that nattokinase showed "a potency matched by no other enzyme."

Our parent company Taitung Enterprise Corporation produced Urokinase which is a intravenous injection drug for dissolving thrombus in clinical therapy. Due to the high production cost and the side-effect, the production was terminated some years ago.


In 2001, Synmax started to cooperate with Japan and National Taiwan University to research and develop Nattokinase. After more than two years, we screened out the best strain of bacillus subtilis natto to operate in coordination with the optimal fermenting condition and purification system. Now, we are able to provide purified high-fibrinolytic activity nattokinase powder.
