Danish Biotech Firm Alcolase Targets East Asia with Enzyme-Based Solution for Alcohol Intolerance
Korea South, 26th May 2025, – Seoul, South Korea — For nearly 30% of East Asians who suffer from alcohol intolerance — often referred to as “Asian flush” — drinking can trigger symptoms ranging from facial redness and nausea to rapid heartbeat and vomiting. Danish biotech startup Alcolase ApS is developing groundbreaking solution: a patented enzyme supplement that can break down alcohol directly in the stomach, potentially transforming how millions experience alcohol.
Founded in Denmark, Alcolase is developing the world’s first orally active enzyme system specifically designed to counteract ALDH2 deficiency — the genetic cause behind alcohol-induced acetaldehyde buildup. This toxic compound not only causes immediate discomfort but is also associated with increased risks of esophageal, laryngeal, and oral cancers when accumulated over time.
“Alcohol intolerance is not just a sensitivity — it’s a genetic inability to detoxify a harmful substance,” said Mikkel Precht, CEO of Alcolase ApS. “And in societies where alcohol consumption is embedded in culture, total abstinence is often not a realistic option.”
Breaking Down Alcohol Where It Starts: The Stomach
Unlike traditional supplements that aim to support liver metabolism, Alcolase’s solution acts before alcohol enters the bloodstream. Delivered in liquid or gel form, the enzyme activates in the stomach to neutralize acetaldehyde at the source. The mechanism is inspired by technologies used in lactose intolerance treatment and relies on a proprietary enzyme stabilization method to retain high activity in gastric conditions.
The system follows a three-step logic:
- The Problem: ALDH2-deficient individuals cannot break down acetaldehyde.
- The Solution: A specialized enzyme helps degrade the toxin directly in the stomach.
- The Result: Improved social and physical well-being.
“Our goal isn’t to promote drinking,” Precht emphasized, “but to improve quality of life for those who face physiological barriers in social and cultural settings.”
East Asia: A 500 Million-Person Opportunity
While Alcolase is aming to commercialize its enzyme system globally, its strategic focus lies in East Asia — home to an estimated 500 million alcohol-intolerant individuals. Countries like South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, where alcohol plays a central role in social and business culture, present significant unmet needs.
Alcolase is actively exploring entry into the Korean market, where cultural norms around drinking often collide with a high prevalence of ALDH2 deficiency.
“We believe Alcolase can bridge the gap between tradition and health,” said Precht. “Korea is a vital part of our expansion roadmap, and we see strong demand for a solution that’s grounded in science, not just convenience.”

Optimize Your QuickBooks Files for Faster, More Accurate Financial Management
Kingston, US, 6th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, As businesses grow, so does the amount of data in their QuickBooks files. Over time, these files can become cluttered and slow, leading to decreased performance and potential errors. QuickBooks file optimization is a crucial service that improves both the speed and accuracy of your accounting system, helping businesses run more smoothly.
Large QuickBooks files can slow down your system, especially when generating reports or reconciling accounts. File optimization reduces the size of the file, removes unnecessary data, and reorganizes it for better performance. This results in faster processing times and a more efficient workflow, saving you time and reducing frustration.
A cluttered QuickBooks file can lead to mistakes, such as duplicate transactions or discrepancies in reports. Optimizing your file ensures that your financial data is clean and organized. By removing outdated records and fixing data inconsistencies, you reduce the risk of errors in your financial reports, which is essential for making informed business decisions.
As QuickBooks files grow in size, the likelihood of corruption or data loss increases. Regular file optimization helps identify and address potential issues early, preventing corruption and ensuring that your data remains intact. This proactive approach can save your business from costly and disruptive downtime.
QuickBooks file optimization helps streamline your accounting data by eliminating inactive accounts, old transactions, and irrelevant entries. This not only improves performance but also makes it easier to manage your financial information, keeping your system organized as your business grows.
QuickBooks file optimization is a simple yet effective way to ensure that your accounting system runs efficiently and accurately. By improving system performance, enhancing data integrity, preventing file corruption, and simplifying data management, optimization helps your business save time and reduce the risk of costly errors.

Why More Businesses Choose QuickBooks Over AccountEdge for Simplicity and Scale
Brandon, MB, 6th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, For businesses looking to streamline their accounting processes, switching from AccountEdge to QuickBooks can offer a host of benefits. While AccountEdge has been a reliable solution for many businesses, QuickBooks offers advanced features, better integration, and a more user-friendly experience, making it a popular choice for growing companies.
One of the biggest advantages of QuickBooks over AccountEdge is its user-friendly interface. QuickBooks is designed to be intuitive, making it easy for both accountants and non-accountants to manage finances, create invoices, track expenses, and generate reports. AccountEdge can feel more complex, particularly for users without accounting expertise.
QuickBooks Online offers the ability to access your financial data from anywhere, at any time, using any device with an internet connection. This cloud-based solution is ideal for businesses with remote teams or owners who need to manage finances on the go. AccountEdge, while offering desktop and cloud versions, is not as fully integrated in the cloud as QuickBooks Online, which limits flexibility.
QuickBooks offers a wide range of versions and apps that can scale with your business. Whether you’re a small business or a large enterprise, there’s a QuickBooks solution that fits. Additionally, QuickBooks integrates seamlessly with over 650 third-party apps, including payment processors, CRM systems, and e-commerce platforms, providing more automation and efficiency. AccountEdge, while offering some integrations, is more limited in this regard.
QuickBooks offers 24/7 customer support and a vast community of users who share tips and insights. Their customer service is well-known for being responsive and helpful. In contrast, while AccountEdge provides support, it is often considered less comprehensive compared to QuickBooks’ resources.
QuickBooks provides more powerful and customizable reporting and analytics tools. You can generate detailed financial reports with ease, giving you better insights into your business’s performance. AccountEdge’s reporting features are robust but are not as versatile or easy to customize as QuickBooks.
Switching from AccountEdge to QuickBooks can significantly improve your business’s accounting efficiency, especially as it grows. QuickBooks offers easier usability, cloud-based flexibility, scalability, extensive integration, and superior customer support—making it a smart choice for businesses seeking to enhance their financial management.

QuickBooks UK offers features tailored to UK businesses
Brandon, MB, 6th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, As businesses expand internationally or relocate operations, transitioning from QuickBooks US to QuickBooks UK is a crucial step in ensuring compliance with local tax regulations and optimizing financial management. While both versions of QuickBooks share similar core features, there are important differences that make the conversion necessary for businesses operating in the UK.
QuickBooks US is built to comply with U.S. tax laws, including sales tax rules. However, the UK follows its own tax system, including VAT (Value Added Tax) and Making Tax Digital (MTD) requirements. QuickBooks UK is specifically designed to handle VAT calculations, generate compliant invoices, and file digital VAT returns, ensuring your business adheres to UK tax laws.
QuickBooks UK is set up to work with GBP (British Pounds), whereas the U.S. version uses USD (U.S. Dollars). The date format and other regional settings also differ between the two countries. Converting to QuickBooks UK ensures that your invoices, financial reports, and records are formatted correctly according to UK standards.
QuickBooks UK integrates seamlessly with UK banks, enabling real-time bank feeds for efficient reconciliation. The US version does not have the same bank integration capabilities in the UK, making it harder to streamline financial transactions and reporting.
QuickBooks UK offers features tailored to UK businesses, such as CIS (Construction Industry Scheme) compliance, UK payroll processing, and support for PAYE (Pay As You Earn) tax schemes. Additionally, you gain access to UK-based customer support for more relevant and timely assistance.
Switching from QuickBooks US to QuickBooks UK is essential for businesses operating in the UK. The conversion ensures you remain compliant with UK tax laws, improves financial management with localized features, and provides better integration with UK banks. For businesses expanding or transitioning to the UK, making the switch is a smart and necessary move for smooth, efficient operations.
