Description
Summary:Data on study of action plasma inhibitors on activity of pancreatic proteolytic enzymes (trypsin, chymotrypsin) and plant proteinases (papain, bromelain), included in composition of enzyme mixes, used for orally application are submitted. It is established, that serine proteases are more sensitive to inactivation of plasma inhibitors, than cysteine enzymes. Main inhibitor of the papain and bromelain is alpha-2-macroglobulin in complex with which they preserve significant part of initial activity. A high-sensitivity method of determination of activity enzyme combinations, enabling to detect nanograms of them in presence of plasma inhibitors is offered. It can be used for study pharmacokinetic and optimization of enzyme mixes application in clinical practice.
