Papaya and Pineapple Fruits
Papaya and Pineapple Fruits
Background
Pineapple and Papaya contain bromelain and papain respectively: proteolytic enzymes.
Function
Bromelain is present in the papaya fruit (it reaches higher concentrations in the fruit when not yet ripe) and in the pineapple fruit and stem. They break the peptide bond of the junction proteins, favoring the epidermal turnover.
