Optimal Conditions for Bromelain Extraction from Pineapple Fruit (Ananas comosus)
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2016 Bromelain is a cysteine protease which is found in the tissues of Bromeliacea plant family of which pineapple Ananas cosmossus is best known. The investigated parameters for optimal Brome-lain extraction are optimum buffers, pH, Molarity, time, and amounts of husk free pineapple fruit to volume (ml) of buffer ratio. Sodium phosphate was best buffer for

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.This study assessed the potential of monoculture oil palm and rubber tree plantations, as well as polyculture orchards, to support understory bird diversity compared to forest reserves using mist‐netting. Orchards recorded the highest bird abundance and richness among agricultural lands, but all agricultural lands had less than half the understory bird

Effect of gibberellic acid and urea on the growth of pineapple fruit (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.)
Science and Technology Development Journal - Natural Sciences, 2019 Effects of gibberellic acid (GA3) and urea on Queen pineapples (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.) growth in the field were discussed in this study. Pineapples were sprayed with GA3 (at the concentration of 1, 5, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 mg.L-1) or urea (at the concentration of 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 g.L-1) on day 0 and day 3 at the beginning of growth ...
