Physicochemical properties of whey protein hydrolysates and their applications in infant formula
… Real-time hydrolysis of whey protein isolate by bromelain was monitored using in-flow small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Whey protein molecules were measured with an average size of ~ 20 Å. During hydrolysis, structural transformations including the conversion of globular whey protein isolate …

Novel Smart Polymer Based In Situ Gels
… release profile of model proteins (Lysozyme, Bromelain and Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA)). Lactide and/or glycolide-based polymers (intrinsic viscosity 0.15 to 0.22 d/L) differing in end groups (carboxylic acid or ester), were dissolved in an organic solvent mixture of various ratios of benzyl …

Comparison of chickpea varieties, optimization of hydrolysates production, peptide identification and evaluation of biomarkers for type 2 diabetes in the application of a value-added tortilla.
… in the production of hydrolysates using bromelain, a functional ingredient that could be applied to a maize tortilla product and test the bioactivity of the final product. The first part of the research was focused on the extraction, isolation and characterization of proteins of ground …

Effects of nitrogenous substances on heat transfer fouling using model thin stillage fluids
… concentration. Protease from pineapple stem (bromelain) incubation increased fouling in both model and commercial fluids, which were indicative that hydrolyzed molecules such as peptides, amino acids or protease itself can be involved in deposit formation. Adjustment of pH in model fluids …

Biomolecularly and mechanically instructive materials for guiding cell-substrate interactions
… allowed us to understand the mechanism by which bromelain affects cell rolling during the early steps of inflammation. The latter part of this work utilized BP-mediated immobilization on two substrates, collagen-glycosaminoglycan membranes and polyacrylamide hydrogels, to evaluate stem cell …

Development of a direct photochemical method for the generation of biomolecular interfaces for applications in leukocyte biology
… whole blood for investigating the effects of bromelain, an alternative anti-inflammatory treatment, on neutrophil recruitment in vitro under conditions of physiological shear stress. Beyond applications in leukocyte biology, this methodology for biomolecular substrate generation can serve as …

In vitro anti-platelet aggregation activity of the extracts of bulbine natalensis
… by thrombin, ADP, collagen, epinephrine, papain, bromelain and trypsin. Fresh plant material was extracted sequentially using hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methanol, and water. The chloroform extract had the highest yield of 0.20%. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of …

Biotechnological utilisation of Nephrops shell waste
… chitin. Addition of the proteolytic enzyme, bromelain and a nitrogen source to the fermentation system led to deproteinisation and further demineralisation of the shell. The final product contained 4.2% (w/w) ash, 5.3% (w/w) protein and 79.6% (w/w) chitin. Chitin is relatively inert but can …
