Description

Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme derived from Bromeliaceae sp. (Pineapple plant). The proteolytic activity of this enzymes possesses a broad range of substrate specificity and, is capable of efficiently hydrolyzing most soluble proteins. During the hydrolytic process, amino acids are liberated by proteolysis but the reaction does not necessarily proceed to completion.

 

APPLICATIONS:

BROMELAIN is effective in the hydrolysis of gluten complex in baking applications. Baking powder can be reduced and sulfites eliminated from most batters. Machinability and handling of doughs are greatly improved.

BROMELAIN reduces viscosity of protein during fish meal and stick water processing, allowing for less energy use, complete oil recovery and evaporation to 50% solids based on fish solids.

BROMELAIN is excellent for use as a digestive aid in natural health supplements.
