BROMELAIN- ▸ Meat tenderizing: Hydrolyzes muscle proteins as a meat tenderizer.
- ▸ Brewing: Chill-proofing and haze reduction in beer.
- ▸ Protein hydrolysis: General proteolytic processing of food proteins.
A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.
Request SDS →Bromelain (CAS 9001-00-7) is a proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzyme complex derived from pineapple (Ananas comosus). In industrial food processing it is used to hydrolyze proteins — for example, as a meat tenderizer and in brewing to chill-proof beer. It is commonly standardized to a stated activity ratio (here 1:10).
Frequently Asked Questions
What is bromelain 1:10 powder used for?
Bromelain (CAS 9001-00-7) is a proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzyme complex from pineapple (Ananas comosus). In industrial food processing it is used to hydrolyze proteins, for example as a meat tenderizer and in brewing for chill-proofing and haze reduction in beer. It is supplied here standardized to a 1:10 activity ratio.
What does the 1:10 rating on bromelain powder mean?
The 1:10 designation is a standardized activity ratio indicating the enzyme's proteolytic strength relative to substrate. Standardizing to a stated ratio lets formulators dose consistently across batches; the CoA states the measured activity for each lot.
What is bromelain made from?
Bromelain is extracted from pineapple (Ananas comosus), typically from the stem and fruit, then concentrated and standardized into a powdered enzyme preparation. It carries CAS number 9001-00-7.
What HS code applies to bromelain enzyme powder?
Bromelain is classified under HS heading 3507.90 (enzymes; prepared enzymes not elsewhere specified, other). Confirm the destination-country subheading with your customs broker, since enzyme imports may carry additional documentation.
How is bulk bromelain powder supplied?
RawSource supplies standardized bromelain powder in industrial bulk packaging for food-processing and brewing customers. Specify your required activity rating and volume; a CoA stating measured enzyme activity and an SDS accompany each shipment, and pricing is quoted per order.
