Description

Bromelain From Pineapple Stem 2 U/Mg is a proteolytic enzyme complex derived from the stem of the pineapple plant (*Ananas comosus*). This high-activity grade is essential for applications requiring precise protein digestion and modification. It is a critical processing aid and active ingredient for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, food & beverage, and nutraceutical industries seeking natural, plant-based enzyme solutions.

Application

• Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical Formulations: Used as an anti-inflammatory agent and digestive aid in tablets, capsules, and softgels.
• Meat & Seafood Processing: Acts as a natural meat tenderizer by breaking down tough collagen and muscle fiber proteins.
• Brewing & Beverage Clarification: Employed to prevent chill haze by hydrolyzing proteins in beer and fruit juices.
• Dairy Product Modification: Applied in cheese production to modify texture and accelerate ripening processes.
• Cosmetic & Skincare Products: Incorporated for its exfoliating and anti-edema properties in creams, lotions, and serums.
• Research & Diagnostic Kits: Serves as a key reagent in biochemical research, cell culture, and diagnostic assays requiring protein digestion.
• Dietary Supplement Production: A core ingredient in stand-alone digestive enzyme supplements and multi-enzyme blends.
• Wound Care & Debridement: Utilized in topical formulations for enzymatic debridement of non-viable tissue.
