ABSTRACT:
A purified thiol activated protease obtained from bromelain stem extract is provided. The protease has a molecular weight of about 17,000 daltons to about 21,000 daltons and an isoelectric point of about pI 4.5 to about pI 5.0. Methods for obtaining this enzyme and methods for use of this enzyme for debridement of eschar tissue are disclosed.
