Characterization of Bromelain-Soluble Sheepskin (Ovis aries) Proteins and Effect of In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion on Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibition Activity. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr
Novel bioactive peptides resulted from in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of soluble sheep skin protein. ABSTRACT This work characterizes proteins extracted from sheepskin using bromelain and examines angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition activity of the peptides generated by in vitro gastrointestinal digestion (GID).

Anthelmintic Effect of Chitosan-Encapsulated Bromelain on Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Naturally Infected Goats in Kenya. [PDF]

J Parasitol Res
The emergence of anthelmintic resistance calls for the development of alternatives, including medicinal plant extracts. The present study was aimed at assessing the efficacy of chitosan‐encapsulated bromelain (EB) as an oral solution drug against GIN in goats.

The Influence of Bromelain Administration on Pro‐Inflammatory Cytokines and Lipid Peroxidation in a Rat Model of Intestinal Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Bromelain reduces levels of the pro‐inflammatory cytokines TNF‐α, IL‐1β and MDA in intestinal ischemia‐reperfusion injury. Bromelain's effects on cytokines also reduce damage to intestinal tissue.2 ABSTRACT Background Ischemia‐reperfusion injury is a critical problem that can occur following multiple clinical procedures.

Evaluation of Microleakage Beneath Orthodontic Molar Bands Cemented With Resin‐Modified Glass Ionomer Using Two Enamel Deproteinization Agents [PDF]

International Journal of Dentistry
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the microleakage beneath orthodontic bands cemented with resin‐modified glass ionomer (RMGI), following enamel treatment with two different deproteinizing agents in comparison to a control group. Materials and Methods Thirty‐six human third molars were used for this cross‐sectional study. The samples were

Bromelain Protects Critically Perfused Musculocutaneous Flap Tissue from Necrosis

Biomedicines, 2022
Bromelain has previously been shown to prevent ischemia-induced necrosis in different types of tissues. In the present study, we, therefore, evaluated for the first time, the tissue-protective effects of bromelain in musculocutaneous flaps in mice. Adult
