Description:Stem bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme derived from the pineapple plant, specifically from the stem of Ananas comosus. It is classified as a mixture of cysteine proteases and is known for its ability to hydrolyze peptide bonds in proteins, making it useful in various applications, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, and dietary supplements. The enzyme exhibits a broad pH stability range, typically functioning optimally in slightly acidic to neutral conditions. Stem bromelain is recognized for its anti-inflammatory properties and is often used to aid digestion and reduce swelling. Additionally, it has potential therapeutic applications in wound healing and as an adjunct in certain medical treatments. The enzyme is generally considered safe for consumption, although individuals with pineapple allergies or those on certain medications should exercise caution. Its CAS number, 37189-34-7, is a unique identifier that facilitates the tracking and regulation of this substance in scientific and commercial contexts.
