Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, 15‐LOX, and AGEs Inhibitions by Pineapple Stem Waste

Abstract

A large amount of wastes are generated during bromelain manufacturing from pineapple stem. So far, these wastes are not utilized and are often considered as a burden while disposing them. However, we found some important phytochemicals with considerable bioactivities in these wastes. We believe that these wastes may have a promising usage as a cheap source of one of the ingredients in functional food based industries.
