Papain

BL Papain is manufactured by Biolaxi Enzymes Pvt. Ltd. under the series BL, at their state-of-the-art manufacturing units in India. BL Papain is a natural enzyme derived from the latex of the papaya fruit (Carica papaya). It functions as a proteolytic enzyme that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. Due to its strong protein-digesting properties, BL papain is used for tenderizing, aiding digestion, promoting healing, exfoliating, and softening.
