About this document

Optimal Bromelain Extraction from Pineapple by Mehdi Bns is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document describes a study to determine the optimal conditions for extracting bromelain, a cysteine protease enzyme, from pineapple fruit. The researchers investigated various parameters including buffer type and pH, molarity, extraction time, fruit-to-buffer ratio, pH for enzyme activity, and incubation time. Sodium phosphate buffer at pH 7.0 was found to be optimal for extraction, yielding the highest bromelain activity. Maximum activity was achieved with 0.1M sodium phosphate, an extraction time of 2
