Bromelain is also known as bromelain. Sulfhydryl protease extracted from pineapple juice, peel, etc. Light yellow amorphous powder, slightly special odor. Molecular weight 33,000. The optimum pH for casein, hemoglobin and BAEE is 6 ~ 8, and for gelatin
is 5.0. The enzyme activity was inhibited by heavy metals. Slightly soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol, acetone, chloroform and ether. It preferentially hydrolyzes peptide chains on the carboxyl side of basic amino acids (such as arginine) or aromatic amino acids (such as phenylalanine and tyrosine), selectively hydrolyzes fibrin, decompresses muscle fibers, and has weak effect on fibrinogen. It can be used for beer clarification, medicinal digestion and anti-inflammatory detumescence.
