In plant cells, many cysteine proteinases (CPs) are synthesized as precursors in the endoplasmic reticulum, and then are subject to post-translational modifications to form the active mature proteinases. They participate in various cellular and physiological functions. Here, AcCP2, a CP from pineapple fruit (Ananas comosus L.) belonging to the C1A subfamily is analyzed based on the molecular mo...

Synergism of Saccharum officinarum (sugarcane) and Ananas comosus (pineapple) extract additives on the quality of electroplated zinc on mild steel in acid chloride solution was investigated experimentally at ambient temperature (*28 C). The experiments were performed at different plating times (15 and 18 min), additive concentrations (2, 2.5, 3 ml/50 ml of acid chloride solution), pH 5, tempera...

Pineapples (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.) cultivation on drained peats could affect the release of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere and also the leaching of dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Carbon dioxide emission needs to be partitioned before deciding on whether cultivated peat is net sink or net source of carbon. Partitioning of CO2 emission into root respiration, microbial respiration, ...

The polysaccharides of cell walls isolated from the fleshy, edible part of the fruit of the monocotyledon pineapple [Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.] (family Bromeliaceae) were analyzed chemically. These cell walls were derived mostly from parenchyma cells and were shown histochemically to be unlignified, but they contained ester-linked ferulic acid. The analyses indicated that the noncellulosic poly...

The Bali green banana is commonly given as additional food for babies and the elderly, because of its high nutritional value safe digestion. While Java pineapple which familiar “nanas madu” has a sweet taste rich in an active compound associated with mood. A previous study found that adult people without intermittent explosive disorder lowered serotonin bioavailability tend to selfaggressive be...

This review focused on the usage of bromelain in numerous applications, as well most recent literature chemistry, extraction, and purification from pineapple (Ananas comosus). Bromelain is a crude, aqueous extract obtained stems fruits pineapple, leading edible member family Bromeliaceae. contains mixture different thiol endopeptidases phosphatases, glucosidases, peroxidases, cellulases, & ...
