C number(a): 3. 4. 22. 4 nas substance number(b): 036 optimum temperature: 50-60 inactivation temperature: 65 optimum ph: 5. 0-8. 0 inactivation ph: below 3. 0 and above 9. 5 description: bromelain is isolated from the stems, leaves, and the skin of pineapple by employing modern biological extraction technology. The broad substrate specificity of bromalin enables the enzyme to easily and efficiently hydrolyzed most soluble proteins. Proteins from hemoglobin, gelatin, soybean, fish and others are hydrolyzed to lower molecular weight peptides and amino acids which are soluble in trichloroacetic acid. standards specifications: appearance: fine powder color: off-white to light yellow with specific smell and taste loss on drying: less than 5% ash: less than 5% solubility: soluble in water, not soluble in ethylacohol and organic solvents microblal standard: total plate count: less than 10,000 col. /g yeast & mold: less than 10col. /g coliform: absent e. Coli: absent staphylococcus aureus: absent salmonella spp. : absent the above data is offered as our general specification, and the results may vary from batch to batch production applications:bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme mixture in pineapple fruit and stem. Bromelain displays a number of biochemical activities such as protein digestion, absorption of nutrients, fights inflammation, reduces swelling, inhibits fibrinolysis, cellulites, and diabetic ulcers.
