Plant proteases are well known for their various industrial applications. Papain, present in papaya latex (Carica papaya) and pineapple bromelain (Ananas comosus), is undoubtedly the most studied widely used vegetable protease food pharmaceutical industry worldwide. However, its potential as a biopesticide has been little explored. The objective of this study was to evaluate activity from Caric...

This study was conducted to develop a method for improving tenderness and overall qualities of tough wild boar meat used to dry sausage production with direct addition of raw pineapple (Ananas comosus), mango (Mangifera indica), kiwifruit fuzzy kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa), or ginger (Zingiber officinale roscoe ginger rhizome) juices contained a plant proteolytic enzyme. Dry-sausages were subject...

In spite of the fact that commercial bromelain supplements are available in the market, to date, none of them are produced and formulated from recombinant forms. They are extracted and purified (often partially) from the stem and fruit of pineapple (Ananas comosus). This makes the production of bromelain very difficult, less reliable, often contaminated and expensive. In this study, a recombina...

Research on the Growth Response of Moringa (Moringa oliefera L.) to Administration Liquid fermentation Nutrients from Pineapple Peel Waste ( Ananas comosus aims examine appropriate dosage liquid nutrients pineapple peel waste plants carried out April June. 2021 at Workshop Faculty Science and Technology, Universitas PGRI Palembang. The study used RAL, namely administration which consisted 6 tre...

Enzyme stability is critical in biotechnology, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Investigations on this subject have drawn attention because of its practical application. Bromelain is a thiol-endopeptidase, obtained from pineapple (Ananas comosus), known for its clinical and therapeutic applications, particularly to selective burn debridement and improvement of antibiotic action and anti-...

Background Bromelain is the generic name given to the set of derived endopeptidases belonging to members of the Bromeliaceae family, which belongs to the pineapple (Ananas comosus), being able to break the peptide bond, separating proteins and amino acids [1]. Bromelain possesses a wide range of therapeutic benefit as property of facilitating digestion of proteins, meat softening, ability to fa...

Immediately following exposure to light, a postillumination burst of CO(2) has been detected in Crassulacean acid metabolism plants. A detailed study with pineapple (Ananas comosus) leaves indicates that the postillumination burst changes its amplitude and kinetics during the course of a day. In air, the postillumination burst in pineapple leaves generally is exhibited as two peaks. The postill...

Pineapple (Ananas comosus) is native to South America and widely planted as a fruit crop in the tropics and sub-tropics. This plant is susceptible to a number of fungal diseases of which the most severe is fusariosis. The disease is caused by Fusarium guttiforme and occurs only in South and Central America. The occurrence of a similar disease on pineapples in South Africa has prompted a re-eval...

Electrodeposition of zinc on mild steel in acid chloride solution using as additive, different concentrations of ananas comosus (pineapple) juice extracts, was investigated. Different additive concentrations, plating time, and constant pH conditions were used for the experiments. The electrodeposition of zinc on mild steel was performed using a DC – supply. The surface of the plated steel was e...
