Product Details

🌟 Papain – High-Activity Papaya Enzyme for Food & Health 🌟

1️⃣ Introduction to Papain

Papain is a natural proteolytic enzyme extracted from papaya (Carica papaya). It is a broad-spectrum protease known for its ability to break down proteins into peptides and amino acids. Due to its powerful protein-digesting and anti-inflammatory properties, papain is widely used in food, dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and industrial applications.

Chibio Biotech offers food-grade Papain with enzyme activity levels ranging from 6,000 USP U/mg to 600,000 USP U/mg, ensuring high flexibility for different applications​​.
