Effect of Polysaccharide Sources on the Physicochemical Properties of Bromelain–Chitosan Nanoparticles

Effect of Polysaccharide Sources on the Physicochemical Properties of Bromelain–Chitosan Nanoparticles

Bromelain, a set of proteolytic enzymes potential pharmaceutical applications, was encapsulated in chitosan nanoparticles to enhance enzyme stability, and the effect of different chitosan sources was evaluated. Chitosan types (i.e., low molecular weight chitosan, chitosan oligosaccharide lactate, an...
