Application of bromelain powder produced from pineapple crowns in tenderising beef round cuts
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of bromelain produced from pineapple crowns on the quality of beef round cuts. The beef was treated with bromelain at the following condition; the pH of beef was 5.6, the immersion temperature was 60oC, the concentration of bromelain solution was 0.17% and the immersion time was 10 minutes. Bromelain decreased the hardness, water holding capacity (WHC), moisture content and a* value of beef. On the other hand, bromelain increased the pH, cooking loss, and L* and b* values of beef. Bromelain treatment to beef cut samples significantly (P <0.05) increased the essential and non-essential amino acids content of beef. This indicated that beef treated with bromelain had a desirable effect on the beef quality.

Partitioning of bromelain from pineapple peel (Nang Lae cultv.) by aqueous two phase system
Pineapple peel is a potential source for the extraction of beneficial bioactive compounds due to the large amount of waste after processing. The extraction of bromelain from pineapple peel by using aqueous two-phase system (ATPs) and its application in muscle models were investigated. Bromelain predominantly partitions to the polyethylene glycol (PEG) rich top phase. The highest enzyme activity...

Pineapple (Ananas comosus), Bromeliaceae family, is a fruit grows in tropical countries including Malaysia. This fruit has several pharmacological benefits due to the presence of high concentration of bromelain (cysteine proteases). Condition of elevated temperature will induce deformation of enzyme and result in loss of activity. Sulfhydryl groups in cysteine proteases are readily to be oxidiz...

Background: Burns are common injuries that are usually covered with a layer of necrotic tissue called the eschar. Early removal of the eschar is the current standard of care, however, debridement using tangential excision is usually traumatic and may increase wound surface. In recent years a bromelain-based debriding agent called NexoBrid® that can remove the eschar selectively and thus causes ...

Bromelain belongs to a group of protein digesting enzymes obtained commercially from the fruit or stem of pineapple. Fruit bromelain and stem bromelainare prepared differently and they contain different enzymatic composition. "Bromelain" refers usually to the "stem bromelain." Bromelain is a mixture of different thiol endopeptidases and other components like phosphatase, glucosidase, peroxidase...
