The fruit bromelain activity determined with casein and sodium caseinate as substrates had an optimum activity at 59 0c while the optimum ph was 77 for casein and 65 for sodium caseinate. The process yields a yellowish powder the enzyme activity of which is determined with different substrates such as casein fip unit gelatin gelatin digestion units or chromogenic tripeptides 7 17 19 20.

Bromelain is an enzyme found in pineapple juice and in the pineapple stem.
Bromelain enzyme activity. At basic environment ph 75 95 optimal temperature of the. People use it for medicine. Bromelain is considerably absorbable in the body without losing its proteolytic activity and without producing any major side effects.
Both enzymes require the presence of a reducing agent for full activity. Containing proteolytic enzymes obtained from ananas. It can function at a ph range.
In neutral environment ph 68 71 fruit bromelain activity was active at temperature range of 40 60oc. Bromelain is used for reducing swelling inflammation especially of the nose and sinuses. Its designed by nature to help support gastrointestinal function and may also help to promote the comfort of muscles and joints.
Comosus the pineapple plant. Bromelain extract is a mixture of protein digesting proteolytic enzymes and several other substances in smaller quantities. The fruit bromelain enzyme had its optimum activity at ph 75 for azoalbumin and at 65 for azocasein all at 55 0c.
Bromelain is a general name for a family of sulfhydryl. The health benefits of bromelain. 3to 9 b ut once it is combined with substr ate the acti vity is no.
Nowadays bromelain is prepared from cooled pineapple juice by centrifugation ultrafiltration and lyophilization. A free sulfhydryl group of a cysteine amino acid side chain is required for function. Here are some of the other amazing health benefits of this enzyme as well as the studies that support the benefits of bromelain.
The proteolytic enzymes are sulfhydryl proteases. Traditionally indigenous peoples from south america used pineapples to reduce digestive upset and reduce irritation as well as other therapeutic uses. Fruit bromelain has high proteolytic activity compared to stem bromelain 2 with broad ph optima for synthetic and protein substrates although most assays are performed around neutral ph 1.
Long er susceptible to the effect of the ph. Bromelain is a proteolytic or protein digesting enzyme derived from pineapple stems. Effect of ph and temperature on fruit bromelain activity was more profound in acidic environment at low temperatures while at high temperatures it became more active in neutral to basic environment.
Bromelain accounts for many therapeutic benefits like the treatment of angina pectoris bronchitis sinusitis surgical trauma and thrombophlebitis debridement of wounds and enhanced absorption of drugs particularly antibiotics.
