Overview

This study evaluates bromelain’s proteolytic activity and physicochemical properties in two pineapple varieties, highlighting potential value-added applications.

Key Points

  • The study found that the Giant Kew variety had the highest proteolytic activity measured by GDU in pulp.
  • Physicochemical analysis revealed superior nutritional properties in the Honey Queen variety compared to Giant Kew.
  • Bromelain maintained activity across a pH range of 5.0–8.0 and temperatures from 35.5–70 °C, indicating its stability.
  • Extraction using ammonium sulfate precipitation concentrated the enzyme efficiently, preserving its functionality for industrial uses.
