Reaction
Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity for peptide bonds. Bz-Phe-Val-Arg-/-NHMec is a good synthetic substrate, but there is no action on Z-Arg-Arg-NHMec (c.f. stem bromelain) =

determination of bromelain protease activity in different tissues of pineapple of the Morris variety, overview. The flesh of the pineapple is the largest portion (w/w) for both Morris with crown and no crown followed by peel, core, stem and crown. The bromelain extracted from the peel exhibits high bromelain activity , only slightly lower than the flesh. Pineapple waste such as peels, which contribute to almost 30% of pineapple waste, can be a good source of bromelain
