The bracteatus pineapple genome and domestication of clonally propagated crops [PDF]
Domestication of clonally propagated crops such as pineapple from South America was hypothesized to be a 'one-step operation'. We sequenced the genome of Ananas comosus var.

Effect of Pineapple Storage duration on the Quality of Bromelain age Duration of Pineapple on the Quality of the Bromelain Produced [PDF]
Pineapples are an abundant source of bromelain, however, during the distribution, the storage process can affect the bromelain content of pineapples, including rotting fruits.

Sensitization profiles to purified plant food allergens among pediatric patients with allergy to banana. [PDF]
Banana fruit allergy is well known, but neither immunoglobulin E recognition patterns to purified plant food allergens nor true prevalences of putative banana allergens have been established. This study aimed to characterize β-1,3-glucanase and thaumatin-

Ameliorative potential of stem bromelain on lead-induced toxicity in Wistar rats [PDF]
The present study investigates the protective efficacy of stem bromelain against lead-induced toxicity in male Wistar rats. There were six experimental groups; Group I was negative control, Group II was administered only 20 mg/kg of stem bromelain. Group

Bromelain: A Potent Phytomedicine
The commercially available protein-digesting enzyme bromelain is derived from the pineapple fruit or stem. Bromelain from fruit and stems are produced in different ways and has varied enzyme compositions. "Bromelain" often refers to the "stem bromelain".

Bromelain decreases neutrophil interactions with P-selectin, but not E-selectin, in vitro by proteolytic cleavage of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1. [PDF]
Stem bromelain, a cysteine protease isolated from pineapples, is a natural anti-inflammatory treatment, yet its mechanism of action remains unclear. Curious as to whether bromelain might affect selectin-mediated leukocyte rolling, we studied the ability ...
